Marsh - Billings - Rockefeller National Historical Park


Experience wintry conditions and bracing temperatures along both groomed cross-country ski trails and natural snowshoe trails in the folded hilly landscape of the park. Reflect on the story of stewardship, of people taking care of places – sharing an enduring connection to the land - as you observe the tall trees, wildlife and experience the peacefulness of the woods.

The three closest major airports are Burlington, VT (95 miles from park), Manchester, NH (97 miles), and Boston, MA (143 miles). There are small regional airports in Rutland, VT (37 miles) and West Lebanon, NH (16 miles). Dartmouth Coach offers shuttle service from Boston's Logan Airport to Hanover, NH (20 miles) and Lebanon, NH (16 miles). No other airports are connected to this area by shuttle service. (The Dartmouth Coach also offers service from New York City to Hanover, NH and Lebanon, NH.)
