One loop, village to mountain

The loop starts and ends at Clock Tower Base Lodge. It stops in Ludlow village and at several lodging areas on the way.

Jackson Gore lot shuttle

The village loop does not list a Jackson Gore stop. Okemo says the Ice House and Meadow lots at Jackson Gore have a free shuttle on weekends and holidays. We did not find a published timetable for it.

the shuttle.

    Village stops are Depot and Pleasant Street and the United Church of Ludlow. The loop also stops at Mt. Laurel Ski Club and several inns and condos. The full list is in the schedule below.

  2. If you drive, park first.

    Park free in the Clock Tower lots and walk to the slopes. At Jackson Gore, use the Ice House or Meadow lot and ride the lot shuttle on weekends and holidays.

    Loops leave Clock Tower Base Lodge on the hour. Each stop is a set number of minutes later, such as :08 for Depot and Pleasant Street.

    The loop ends at Clock Tower Base Lodge. Okemo says the car drop-off in the Clock Tower circle is below the shuttle bus drop-off and pick-up.
