Great Glen Trails is home to the SnowCoach, which is your ticket to Mount Washington’s world above treeline. Winter brings a whole new set of sights and sounds to the White Mountains: the crisp mountain air, the crystal blue skies, the soft crunch of new snow. And, the SnowCoach is the best way to experience them all. A specially constructed all-wheel drive and unique 4-track system allows the 9-passenger SnowCoach to deliver you to the world above treeline at the 4.5 mile mark on the Mt. Washington Auto Road for a truly unforgettable experience. For the adventurer in you, the SnowCoach gives you the option to cross country ski, telemark ski or snowshoe down the Auto Road.

SnowCoach tours last approximately 1¼ hours and depart daily, weather permitting, from December through March from Great Glen Trails on a first come, first served basis. Operating hours are approximately 8:30 am to 3:30 pm, depending on weather and road conditions. Call for daily operating schedule.
