Owl's Head is a hidden gem of a mountain that offers an incredible panoramic view of Lake Memphremagog and the surrounding region. With well-groomed trails, great lifts, and a revamped chalet, it's an ideal destination for skiers of all levels. The mountain is mostly shielded from the notorious winds that can plague nearby Jay Peak, making it accessible even on the windiest days. The lodge and friendly staff at Owl's Head create a welcoming atmosphere, and the resort even hosts surprise visits from Santa. Visitors praise the excellent trails, with Magog being a particular favorite, and the spacious and clean bathrooms. The resort's Ski-in, Ski-out convenience is also a big plus. For those looking to explore Owl's Head beyond the slopes, the mountain offers a challenging but rewarding hiking trail with a stunning viewpoint at the summit. The trail is steep in sections and can be tricky on the descent, so proper footwear is a must. While the hike may not be suitable for young children, the gondola option provides an alternative way to reach the top. Overall, Owl's Head is a hidden gem that offers a fantastic skiing and hiking experience, with a beautiful lakeside setting and a warm, welcoming atmosphere.

The most picturesque of the Eastern Townships ski stations with beautiful views of the lake. The chalet has lost some of its charm since being rebuilt, but the skiing is as enjoyable as ever.
