About The Retreat Ski Area
The Retreat Ski Area is a former ski resort in Vermont that no longer operates. Once a destination for alpine skiing and snowboarding in the state, it is now abandoned and inaccessible to the public. The site remains in its location in central Vermont, but there are no services, maintained trails, or facilities available to visitors. Anyone interested in the area's history should research its past operations from a distance; there is no current reason or ability to visit the property itself.
