Hunter Mountain Tours

“THANK YOU NORA
If you are on the fence about trying a NORA class or one of their other outings just go do it. I’ve been off-roading all my life and after attending the beginner class, advanced class, and the Hunter Mountain Tour, I can honestly say I’ve gained an abundance of information and skills from the NORA crew. If you’re a beginner and or apprehensive about taking your vehicle off road don’t be. The NORA crew is not going to let anything happen to you or your vehicle. If you have an advanced skill set, they have a great play ground with lots of great obstacles and courses. They run a 5 star service and is the crew I would want to be with on any off road outing!.” – Tony P, Trip Advisor, Nov 2017

“HUNTER MOUNTAIN FUN WITHOUT SNOW
We did the Hunter mountain tour. Looking to try out real 4 wheeling? This is the place to do it. With trained guides to help you along it takes the worry out of a great adventure. (CAUTION: this is not just driving dirt roads, this is 4 wheel trails that you most probably would not even hike.) Had a lot of fun and discovered some capabilities my truck had I didn’t know.” – Steven H, Trip Advisor, May 2024

1 and 2-Day Public Off-Road Driving Tours 
Click on a date listed below to register

Location: Hunter Mountain Ski Bowl, Hunter, NY

For rigs with 4-Low, i.e. Wranglers, Broncos, 4-Runners and many more!
These family friendly events do not require any previous off-road driving experience but vehicles must have 4-Low gearing and recovery points. ‘Factory fresh’ and modified (lifts, bigger tires, etc.) vehicles are welcome. These tours are a great way to learn about and enjoy your 4×4 street legal vehicle’s off road capabilities. NORA staff are with you the entire day guiding, informing and contributing to a fun experience. Note full size trucks (RAM 1500, F150, etc.) will run all trails except the 20-minute summit loop due to the tight trail. Full size trucks will wait at a designated summit area and rejoin the group as they finish the loop.

Driving Tour & Summit: Whether you have experience driving off road or have never done it before, our classic guided scenic 4×4 driving tour at Hunter Mountain is designed to provide hours of great views and varying rugged terrain.  This is not hardcore rock crawling, but rather a fun adventure day driving on a ski mountain (service & logging roads, forest and ski trails) as you learn about your vehicles 4-Low capabilities. Includes lower trails, an ascent to the summit, summit trails and sky ride (if operational).
Priced per vehicle for one day, includes all passengers.
