Adventurers and families alike can embark on a snowy escapade across Steele Hill Resort’s sprawling 500 acres, enveloped in the tranquility of the Lakes Region.

Be sure to stop to take in the beautiful scenery during your adventure whether you are viewing the Kearsarge Mountain range from the yellow trail, the frozen ponds, marshland and historical burial grounds from the red trail or taking a well-deserved break on our custom-made bridge overlooking a flowing stream on the blue trail. Prior to embarking on your journey, be sure to check the weather, layer up and review the property trail map for safety.
