Both in Western New York and across the country, resorts have begun to add new, unique features to their activity offerings beyond the standard ski slopes. One of the most trendy additions is mountain coasters. Head to Ellicottville, just an hour south of the Queen City, to experience one of the best coasters around – and it’s even open in the wintertime! A ride down these rails feels like your very own mini rollercoaster. If you’re looking for a seasonal thrill, add a touch of adrenaline to your sledding experience and plan an adventure to this exciting nearby mountain.
There’s a wintertime adventure waiting for you at the Holiday Valley Resort in Ellicottville, and it’s one you might not expect to remain open during the snowy season.
