Scenic Skyrides / Brews & Views

Take in the Views with a Scenic Skyride at Granite Gorge Mountain Park

Looking for a unique way to experience the beauty of the Monadnock Region? Our scenic skyrides offer a peaceful chairlift ride to the top of the mountain, where sweeping views of southern Vermont and the surrounding countryside await. It’s the perfect outing for families (ages 3+), couples, or anyone looking to take in the outdoors from a new perspective.

Skyrides are available:
Saturdays & Sundays from 10:00 AM to 4:30 PM

Pricing:
Adults – $10 with unlimited rides per day
Children 3–8 – $5 with unlimited rides per day & must be accompanied by an adult 18 or older

Tickets are purchased at our guest services counter.

Please note: hiking down the mountain is not permitted at this time. After your ride, we invite you to relax with food and drinks at The Roxbury Bar & Grill, where you can enjoy mountain views from our deck or unwind by the fire.

Make it a day to remember—see Granite Gorge from above.
