Fat Tire Snow Biking
Boyne prides itself on finding the most fun ways to ride on the snow, so it only makes sense that they would offer Fat Tire Snow Biking! It's just as easy as riding a bike, only now you can ride on snow thanks to fat tires and their rad trail system. 

Groomer Rides
Join Boyne for a groomer ride, and you'll have the opportunity to hop into the cab of a snowcat and chat up a member of their dedicated grooming staff while they prepare tonight's snow for tomorrow's fun.  

Horseback Riding
Guided trail rides begin at the Boyne Mountain Stable, and take riders on an equine adventure through some of the resort's most remote, beautiful terrain.

Horse Drawn Rides
On Friday, Saturday, and Sunday evenings, all winter long, you can bundle up and settle in while the horses do the walking. Boyne's horse-drawn sleigh rides depart every 30 minutes from the circle drive in front of the Mountain Grand Lodge and Spa, and they're free for all resort guests. 

Ice Skating
Stop by the Boyne Mountain ice rink - located just behind the Clock Tower Lodge - and lace up your skates. Whether you're carving figure eights, throwing a triple toe loop, or doing your best just to stay upright, you're sure to have fun doing it.

Skiing and Riding
With 60 downhill runs, Boyne's commitment to snowsports is every bit as strong as it's always been. Plus, with seven terrain parks where skiers and snowboarders alike can catch air and push winter's boundaries, their slopes are the perfect place to blow off some winter steam. 

Snowshoeing
With 4 km of dedicated snowshoeing trails, you'll have the perfect chance to explore some unexplored Boyne Mountain terrain with family and friends.

Tubing
Tubing may just be the most fun you can have sitting down. Simply grab a tube, hook it on to the conveyor, then turn around, and take a seat; the Top Notch lift will take you to the top of the hill. On your mark, get set, go!

Zipline Adventure
Feel what it's like to fly at speeds of 20-25 mph on lines up to 50 feet in the air and 780 feet in length. The adventure begins at the top of the mountain and routes you through trees and across the slopes of Boyne Mountain.

Annual Winter Events

Boyne is a strong believer in the importance of tradition, so that's why they're proud to host several annual winter events each year that have a long history of fun as follows:
