Orienteering: A local volunteer, Mark Lattanzi, has built an orienteering course at Mountain Lake. Please click here for course information. You may obtain course maps at the Recreation Office in the main hotel parking lot but be sure to bring your own compass!
Geocaching: There are a variety of geocaches hidden at Mountain Lake. Check out geocaching.com for information or stop by the Recreation Office for information.
Interested in hiking sections of the Appalachian Trail? It's only 5 miles from Mountain Lake! Our hotel is the ideal place to stop and relax for the evening and we even offer shuttle service to the trail. Contact us and we can help you plan your trip.
For those that want to get wet, or just spend some time afloat enjoying incredible scenery, you can arrange professionally outfitted, float trips on the New River. The New River is a designated 'American Heritage River' and our particular stretch through Eggleston and Pembroke is some of the most scenic among its entire length. There are many different outfitters on the New River and we can help point you in the right direction!
Tubing is a nice way to enjoy the river and New River Junction is setup to provide a really nice day afloat without a paddle on the New River in McCoy just 20 minutes from the resort. This is a favorite with local students and an experience you'll never forget.
Is winter recreation your thing? We have miles of trails that were designed especially for back-country skiing. You are welcome to come during the winter months and go snowshoeing and sledding as well. With our 4,000 feet of elevation and north facing slopes we have winter fun when everyone else is just kicking sticks. Need help with rental support? E-mail us and we will try to point you in the right direction.
