The Winter Coaster In New Hampshire That Will Take You Through A Snowy Mountain Wonderland
Editor’s Note: The Mountain Coaster no longer runs during the wintertime. However, it still operates during the summer months.
Everyone knows that skiing in the east gives the west a run for its money. While we might be biased, it’s New Hampshire skiing that offers the most fun in this region of the country. But, what’s more unique and fun than skiing? Racing down a hill in a winter coaster, of course! Check this out if you’re looking for a fun new way to enjoy the outdoors this winter in the Granite State.
While there are plenty of winter action resorts to explore in New Hampshire, we love Gunstock Mountain Resort in Gilford.
But this year try something a little more unique in the form of the mountain coaster! You can enjoy it year-round, but there's nothing like a winter ride!
Riders have their own brake system to make sure they're moving at a speed that's comfortable for them. The maximum speed is 25 m.p.h., meaning that those with an adventurous streak will have plenty to talk about when they get home! But don't take our word for it: check out this epic footage for yourself.
And, once you've enjoyed your ride make sure to stick around to enjoy the park's wintry atmosphere at night. it's remarkable!
We also love snow tubing throughout the winter. Check out this spot, which we think is totally underrated. Is it the best in the country? Check it out and you be the judge!
