Description

The Lake Morey Ice Skating Trail is the longest ice trail in the United States, when ice conditions permit its full operation. Crossing the entire lake from north to south, or some winters circling the lake’s perimeter, the trail offers panoramic views and the chance to spot a bald eagle. 

The Lake Morey Resort offers hockey, figure & nordic skates, as well as kick sparks at their skate rentals through the main entrance of the resort.

Other Information

View ice reports and rental information on the Lake Morey Resort website.

The Ice Skating Trail is the site of an annual Skate-a-thon in January, weather and ice conditions permitting. 

Dogs are allowed, but much be kept under control. Please clean up after your pets.

Trailhead Information

From I-91 take exit 15 to Fairlee. Off the ramp: turn west and take Lake Morey Road West. Follow signs to the Lake Morey Resort. Park on west side of resort and walk around building to Ice Trail entrance.

Skating Access Points: The Lake Morey Skating Trail is open to the public - after all the lake is a public place. Lake Morey Resort allows anyone wishing to access the trail to cross their lakefront to access the trail. You may use the Resort's west parking lot and walk on their lakefront access driveway to reach the lake. Some weekends are very busy at the Resort and parking spaces may be at a premium. Alternately you can access the trail via the state boat launch and parking area on the west side of the lake.
