Beautiful Views

We rode the gondola up and then continued on the short hike to the peak of Killington Mountain. It was a clear day and the views were spectacular. It was not a difficult hike at all. Worth it for sure!

the leaves were changing color and we decided to try the K1 express gondola to get a view from the top of the mountain. Going up was neat since you pass right over the trees; on top the views and colors were beautiful and you...More

Great Ride

Very nice ride to the top of the mountain. While you are up[ there check out the lodge. The views are the beat. It takes some effort to get to this area from Bear mountain. If you are there plan on taking a few hours...More

Efficient but in the wrong place

When you come down most of the runs leading to K-1, you encounter a flat stretch and unless you have lots of speed (which is dangerous in that crowded space), you have to pole or walk quite a bit to get there. The gondola isn’t...More

Really nice lift

I enjoyed the ride, which takes about 12 min in total. The Gondolas all seemed new and modern. The RFID system and staff got the long line moving quickly. I am a pretty new skier, but was able to handle Bear Trax to Snowshoe Crossover...More

Killington gondola great

Nice when weather is cold. NOTE for strong skillful skiers only. Beginners do not use. Also there is no downloading so you must ski down.

New cars in 2018

The gondola cars have been replaced with more aerodynamic models so they can handle higher winds. It it's a cold day, the line will be long, as expected. Holds 8 people.

Quick ride to the top

The K1 has been adding new gondolas which are warmer and smoother riding. All the lifts have RFI entry points which you will get accustomed to. The snowboarders seemed to be having trouble putting their boards on the outside racks and were told to take...More
