Summer Activities: Attitash

Ski resorts are famous for, well, skiing and snowboarding. But they offer so much more than this during the other three seasons of the year! Many of these resorts are located amongst some of the country’s most beautiful mountains. Do not miss the view in the summer! Let’s take a look at one of the White Mountain’s most popular ski resorts, complete with beautiful views of Mt. Washington and the rest of the Presidential Range.




Attitash


  • ZipTour: The longest single zipline in NH! Zip from the summit of Bear Peak to the base of Attitash. The ZipTour is open weekends through Columbus Day.
  • Mountain Coaster: A downhill roller coaster ride through the forest.. Cruise at rider-controlled speeds of up to 25 mph through banked curves & dips.
  • Alpine Slides: A NH icon & guest favorite at Attitash. Wind through the slopes and forest down over a mile of slides.
  • Airbag Jump: Make like a stunt double and jump off the ledge! Feel the rush of making a free-fall jump into a 40-by-40 foot airbag, designed to give you a soft landing.
  • Waterslides: Looking for a place to cool down and have fun this summer? Attitash's two waterslide attractions: Aquaboggan  & tubing slide Sidewinder, offer adventure and thrills for kids and adults.
  • EuroBungy Trampoline: Jump, spin, fly upside down on Attitash’s bungee trampolines. A harness, connected by bungee cords, allows you to jump, flip, and defy gravity as you soar over two stories high on the Euro-Bungy Trampolines.  Four trampolines are set up in the Attitash Base Area & are included in the Attitash Adventure Park Admission.
  • Climbing Wall: Before taking on Cathedral Ledge, practice on Attitash’s climbing wall. Reach for the top of our 24' climbing wall.  Our trained staff will be on belay as young and old challenge themselves via three different route options.  This is a great introduction to climbing and the Mount Washington Valley offers some of the best rock climbing in the East.
  • Slacklines: Got balance? We’ll see! Test it on Attitash's slacklines. Slacklining refers to the act of walking or balancing along a suspended length of flat webbing that is tensioned between two anchors. Slacklining is similar to tightrope walking but a little easier and low to the ground.
  • Scenic chairlift rides: Take in the White Mountain Scenery. Enjoy a round-trip tour to the summit, where the spectacular views of the Presidential Range and the Mount Washington Valley await you. Feel free to bring a bag lunch for a picnic on the summit.
  • Mountain Biking: Downhill or cross country... there is fun for miles! Attitash Mountain Resort has nearly 20 miles of mountain bike trails for all abilities, including 35 downhill trails and 8 cross-country trails. Enjoy scenic cross-country terrain along the Saco River or ride more extreme, lift-accessed downhill terrain on Attitash and Bear Beak.
