Skiing, snowboarding and tubing- Mount Peter is the ultimate in outdoor winter fun this season. Amentities include 2 lodges, outside grill, bar, retail shop, rentals, tuning and snow tubing carpet lift. There are a total of 5 lifts on the mountain; 3 chair, 2 carpet and 1 rope tow. 

Located in Warwick, NY, Mount Peter is most known for offering a free beginner ski and snowboard school, awesome terrain park, topnotch racing, snow making and an overall great place for families. 


For years Mount Peter has been a great place to hang out with friends, meet new people or reconnect with family. It is one of the few remaining family- operated ski areas in the country and they are celebrating their 80th year in business! Mount Peter has a unique, homey feel that brings long time customers coming back each year and welcomes new families with open arms.

Fun Fact: Mount Peter was started in 1936 by Macy's Department Store to show off and sell their ski fashion.

Mount Peter is open Monday through Sunday and offers night skiing Monday through Saturday. In addition to the public skiing, snowboarding and tubing, programs at the mountain include Mountain School, racing programs and development groups. 

Bigger and better than it's opening last year you can bring your non-skiing family out for a day of snow tubing fun at Mount Peter. Snow tubing is a lot like sledding expect instead of hauling your ride back up the mountain let the 600 foot conveyor carpet bring you to the top and then sled back down again! Go tubing before January 31st to take advantage of the special introductory pricing. Tickets include 2 hours sessions for $25 per person (with special pricing for groups). There are no days like snow days for Hudson Valley Families. Readers share winter fun photos in anticipation of some snowy day fun this winter!

Gift cards are also available for that special someone. So as they say at Mount Peter, "Take the day - Come out and play!"
