Located on 6,000 acres in the heart of the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia, Massanutten Resort offers outdoor enthusiasts a nearly-endless supply of activities year-round. Here are just a few of our favorites:
It’s Always Summer at the Massanutten Indoor WaterPark
Open year-round, Massanutten’s climate-controlled, Indoor WaterPark entertainment complex features 8 water slides, an adventure river, hot tubs, and water play structure with countless interactive elements and a 528-gallon dumping bucket. A highlight for thrill-seekers is the state’s first and largest FlowRider surf simulator! If you’re visiting with the little ones, make sure to visit the Frog Pond, a shallow pool with sprinklers, swings, and a giant frog’s tongue that babies and toddlers love sliding down!
Open Memorial Day weekend to Labor Day, Massanutten’s Outdoor WaterPark welcomes all water and sun lovers to catch a wave at the White Caps Wave Pool, play water hoops, or race down the Rockingham Racer head-first, downhill water slide. For the ultimate relaxation, rent a private Cabana for the day; complete with a ceiling fan, Wi-Fi, four lounge chairs, two towels, as well as dedicated service from the newly expanded Chill Grill.
Hours and rates for the Massanutten WaterPark vary depending on age and season, but children 2 and under are always free! Plus, you can see full hours and rates online at massanuttenwaterpark.com
Soar Through The Canopy
Want to see the mountains from a totally different perspective? Consider signing up for an exhilarating Canopy Tour at the Family Adventure Park. This 90-minute journey through the forest will take you across the Burma bridge, hanging vines, and four different zip lines that range in length from 90 to 470 feet. If you’re looking for quick, heart-pumping action, fly alongside a friend on the 800’ Mega-Zip dual racer zip line! Or, if you have the little ones with you, the Kids’ Adventure Course is perfect for those 12 and under who still want to experience all the action.
Ridge Climbing & Rappelling Excursion
If adrenaline pumping action is what you desire, Massanutten’s Ridge Climbing & Rappelling Excursion is just for you! Experience the thrill of a 38ft and 58ft rappel, assisted by your guide. Stop for beverages and a quick snack at the scenic overlook before reaching for new heights during a rock climbing portion. Conquer your fears and blaze your own trail on two different Class 5 climbing routes, with difficulty ratings from 5.6-5.8 to match your climbing experience and fitness level. Professionally trained guides assist you during each activity, so no experience is necessary.
Test Gravity at the Massanutten Bike Park
The Shenandoah Valley has become a hotspot for downhill mountain biking and the Massanutten Bike Park is one of the best in the area. With two chairlifts that service a network of gravity-fed trails, Massanutten offers a great mix of purpose built trails tailor-made for beginner, intermediate, and expert riders.
Fuel Up at Campfire Grill
All that hiking, mountain biking, rappelling, and ziplining is sure to build up your appetite. Luckily, Massanutten has one of the best dining scenes in the Valley. With three top-notch restaurants to choose from, you’ll never want for great food and drink when visiting Massanutten. Campfire Grill is Massanutten’s newest on-mountain dining location inspired by the Shenandoah National Park. Camp stove chili, chicken dumplings, campfire pouches, and skillets are just a few classic campfire dishes. Just make sure to save room for the s’mores!
Surf the Earth on a Golf Board
Massanutten Resort is home to two high caliber golf courses: Woodstone Meadows Golf Course and Mountain Greens Golf Course. If you’re headed onto the greens, be sure to ask about the newGolfBoards. Golfers of all ages can now “Surf the Earth” from shot-to-shot in a way that feels like snowboarding or surfing.
Attend a Festival
Massanutten hosts four annual festivals on their ski slopes, two of which occur during the warmer months. Whether you’re looking to jam out at the ValleyFest Beer & Wine Festival on May 25 or watch the fireworks with the whole family at Summer Jam on July 3, Massanutten is the place to be!
