Mount Wachusett — Local services in Princeton

I had a fantastic time hiking at Mt. Wachusett! Some of the trails pleasantly surprised me—they were moderately challenging but so much fun, winding through various types of vegetation. Everyone I encountered on the hike was friendly and welcoming, adding to the overall experience. There are numerous trails to explore, and I chose to follow the Midstate Trail.

The lines here are much longer then other places so it feels like I don’t have enough time to find my footing and get to that next level before it’s time to go again. Other mountains are offering longer packages and for a beginner I found that A lot more helpful. But all in all it’s still working...

Almost live here ... Its a wonderful place to be on and off the slopes. The covid version of the menu is incredibly sad though. A brat for 8 bucks and it is literally JUST THE BRAT?! With maybe a table spoon of onions? 😬 I'm a small lady and could have eaten 3 or more of those. We did buy more but still add some fries or a drink with that sad of a plate! Otherwise from what I see everyone is doing the best they can following Covid Regulations and enforcing them strictly. Very appreciative of this. And keeping things very clean & up on the snow. Its...
