Nov 25, 2013 — 1 min read

If you liked being able to catch a bus to the beach directly from Park Slope over the summer, you might be interested in hopping on one that will take you to the snowy hills this winter.

NYC Beach Bus is running as NYC Snow Bus starting on December 13, with four pick-up locations (including the Barclays Center on Flatbush Ave at Atlantic), traveling to Mountain Creek in New Jersey for skiing and snowboarding, about an hour and a half drive from the city. Departures are Friday-Sunday and all holidays at 8:30am.

Rates are $35 for the bus ride only, $67 for the bus ride and a lift ticket, or $97 for the bus ride, a lift ticket, and rental equipment, but they’re offering discounted deals for the first two weeks. Lift tickets are free for children 6 and under.

The Snow Bus will be making trips through March 9. Visit their site to buy tickets, and for updates and photos, follow them on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram.
