Ski Ward Ski Area

Ski Ward Ski Area, once known as Ward Hill Ski Area, has been in operation since 1939 and is one of the oldest continuously operating ski/snowboard areas in the country. Just minutes from Worcester and less than an hour from Boston, you’ll find Ski Ward, a small area with something for everyone. Ski Ward is open year-round offering skiing, snowboarding and tubing in both the winter and summer along with birthday parties, group outings and corporate functions. Ski Ward is also host to the Slopeside Bar & Grill serving lunch, dinner, beer, wine and ice cream both indoors and outdoors on a patio with fantastic views. The winter offers 9 trails, 4 lifts and 8 tubing lanes, a rental shop, and a snow school with more than 100 instructors teaching private and group lessons, multi-week lesson and vacation lesson programs. The summer hosts a one-of-a-kind in New England summer ski and snowboard park, a summer tubing park that's perfect for fields trips, day camps and birthday parties, a BigAirBag, beach volleyball, mud runs, and other special events. All of which make Ski Ward the area’s year-round go-to family recreation destination.
