North Conway NH Area Downhill Skiing

The North Conway NH area has been attracting skiers since the first season Mount Cranmore opened for the1937-38 season. With the arrival of Hannes Schneider, known throughout Europe for his ski school  and development of new skiing techniques, Mount Cranmore quickly became one of the most popular ski resorts in the East. .At the same time, Bill and Betty Whitney retrofitted the rope tow on the hill behind their inn with shovel handles from Sears and Roebuck. Skiers flocked to the area from Boston on snow trains that arrived in North Conway Village. Up to 4,000 would arrive for a one-day trip!

Fast forward to today… North Conway has been named the #1 Ski Town in America by USA Today readers!  With over 300 trails and glades to ski and ride withing thirty minutes of the village, be sure to allow enough time to enjoy!
