Join us for a scenic hike up Stratton Mountain! This guided hike will take you uphill through beautiful surroundings, followed by a relaxing gondola ride back down the mountain.
The hike involves a moderate level of effort, covering 2.14 miles from base to summit, with an estimated round-trip time of about 2 hours.
This is a free event, but we kindly ask that you sign up in advance to reserve your spot. We will meet at 9:00 AM in the main base area to begin the hike.
