About Ski Butternut

Butternut’s official statistics separate five quad chairs and four learning carpets from one tubing carpet. The nine-lift summary above counts the ski and learning facilities; tubing is a separate activity. Read the dated report and applicable session schedule for actual availability.

Ski Butternut combines a compact 100-acre mountain with extensive snowmaking, five quad chairs and dedicated learning terrain in the southern Berkshires.

Plan lessons and mountain time together when visiting Ski Butternut from Great Barrington or elsewhere in the southern Berkshires.

Check the dated condition report for open trails, lifts and services. Camera views can add visual context; they do not establish which terrain is open.

Why it stands out

Southern Berkshires base

The Great Barrington location works well for regional day trips and longer town-centered stays.

Learning capacity

Four learning carpets complement five quad chairs across the mountain's beginner-through-advanced terrain.
