Escape to Waterville Valley Resort for Cross-Country Skiing from $99

Waterville Valley, N.H.- -Take a midweek getaway to the largest, most diverse cross-country ski trail system in New Hampshire.  The getaway package includes lodging in a one-bedroom condo, daily Nordic trail pass and rental equipment, access to the White Mountain Athletic Club and a $50 dinner voucher to use at your choice of the restaurant in Waterville Valley's Town Square.

From $99 pp/night, double occupancy. Valid Sun.-Thurs., non-holidays. Not available January 1-2, 18-19, Feb. 15-20, 2009. All lodging and ski packages include access to the White Mountain Athletic Club with indoor pool, Jacuzzis and steam rooms, and use of Waterville Valley Resort's shuttle bus.

Waterville Valley Resort, located in New Hampshire's White Mountains, is well known for its ski mountain, which features trails and activities for all ages and abilities. From Kids Venture Kamps to the Silver Streaks over-50 ski club, from alpine to Nordic, boarders and hot-doggers, there is something for every level of skier. And, with these new ski packages, the cost to ski is affordable and just a 2-hour drive from Boston. Once you arrive in Waterville Valley, park the car and relax. Stay 3-nights and receive a $30 gas voucher, then enjoy the walkable resort or take the free shuttle bus.

Waterville Valley Resort offers 250 skiable acres with snowmaking ability on every trail. The ski area peaks at 4,004 feet, with a vertical drop of 2,020 feet, 52 trails and 12 lifts. But for those who like their skiing with a little less altitude, Waterville Valley's Nordic Center features 75 km of wide-groomed trails with terrain for every ability level, groomed daily for both skate and classic skiing styles. Skiers take off from the Nordic Center in the Valley's quaint Town Square, or just step out the door of their vacation rental--the trails are only steps away from most of the accommodations. Once on the trail, you'll enjoy incredible views of the surrounding White Mountain National Forest. Stop for a rest and a snack at the warming hut along the trail, or return to the Nordic Center and sit by the fire.

New Hampshire has many towns that naturally grew around the state's travel and tourism industry, particularly around its many ski mountains. But only one, Waterville Valley, was designed and planned specifically as a self-contained, four seasons resort. In addition to its world-class ski area, Waterville Valley Resort has award-winning tennis courts, golf, hiking, biking, lodging, cultural activities and summer theater, an indoor ice rink, boating, a skate park, and a host of outdoor activities. Dining options include traditional favorites and elegant dining. For more information, call 1-800-GO-VALLEY or visit www.visitwatervillevalley.com.
