Enjoy Staying Near the Stowe Derby Thrills
Whether you’re someone with a passion for time on the slopes, or you’re simply here to spectate, taking time to participate in the Stowe Derby is always a thrill. The Stowe Derby is hosted each February and has been a staple winter event in Stowe since first kicking off in 1945. It’s often considered one of the most unique ski races in all of North America with good reason. What began as nothing more than a friendly competition between Sepp Ruschp of Austria, the head of Stowe’s ski school at the time, and his buddy Erling Strom who was a mountaineer from Norway eventually turned into one of the area’s most iconic continuing traditions! Today, the race begins right at the summit of Mount Mansfield and runs a course down to the village of Stowe. In total, the race covers 20 kilometers and comes with a challenging vertical drop of over 2,700 feet. The race comes with bragging rights for top finishers, but it’s also a chance to simply showcase talent on the snow too. These days, participants can pick and choose from varying courses to race in ranging from short courses for young kids to longer courses for adults.
