Long Island Skiing Bus Trips

Ski trips from Long Island can be difficult, as New York City traffic lies between you and your destination. Additionally, there are no public transportation options to ski resorts from Long Island or New York City. However, there are convenient and safe ways for travel to and from your winter sports destinations.

Ski tour companies provide transportation for day trips and overnight trips to ski resorts throughout the Northeast from Long Island. If you want to be part of a group, there are ski clubs throughout Long Island that provide carpooling or organize their own bus trips.
