Jay Peak, USA
Exclusive to Visions school ski groups, the uniquely remodelled resort of Jay Peak is the premier East Coast Mountain getaway.
Tucked away in Northern Vermont, just two hours south of Montreal and four hours north of Boston, USA, this self-contained ski and snowboard resort boasts some of the best terrain East Coast USA has to offer.
Jay Peak averages the most natural snow in Eastern North America each season at over 900cm, twice as much as many other east coast ski resorts. Because of the mountain’s location and geographical features, Jay’s abundant natural snowfall and unique terrain combine to make some of the most exciting glade skiing in North America.
So, if you’re looking for great east coast snow, uncrowded slopes, guaranteed door-step skiing until late April and an all-inclusive evening entertainments package, then Jay Peak is the perfect resort for you!
School ski groups can also take advantage of staying overnight in central Boston Hotel or New York City

“Another amazing trip to Jay Peak with Visions. Thank you to all the staff who continue to make these trips special for students and school staff. No need to look anywhere else when booking for future trips. No one can match what Visions give”
