Nestled in the woods and accessible only by sleigh, the Ledgewood Yurt provides a one-of-a-kind dining experience in Killington, Vermont. It’s located just off the Northbrook Trail on Killington Mountain and resembles a structure used by nomadic Mongolian tribes over 2,000 years ago. Slightly sunk into the snow and sparkling with tiny white lights, the yurt’s impeccable service and cuisine will exceed your expectations. Here’s why a trip to the Ledgewood Yurt should be on your bucket list.

Enjoy a Meal at the Ledgewood Yurt
Ledgewood Lunch
With its warm wood-burning stove and relaxing atmosphere, lunch at the Ledgewood Yurt is perfect for guests who need a break from skiing. The farm-to-table menu features everything from hearty soups and salads to signature sandwiches and entrees. Not sure what to order? We like the Vermont cheddar mac and cheese with crispy leeks and crushed salted pretzels. Or try the Ledgewood Reuben made with VT pastrami, Swiss cheese, sauerkraut, and Thousand Island dressing. Wash it all down with a Vermont brew and you’ll be ready to get back on the trails!
Family Nights
Family Night at the Ledgewood Yurt is a culinary adventure for diners of all ages. Start the evening with a 20-minute sleigh ride to the yurt, then cozy up at a dining table made for groups of 6 or 8 people. You’ll indulge in a gourmet three-course meal that’s suitable for younger palettes. A fine list of wine, beer, and liquor is also available upon request. Family Night is $65 per person and space is limited. Be sure to book early!
