K-1 Gondola Operations & Maintenance

This summer, the K-1 Gondola operated primarily on Friday through Sunday, shifting from last year’s Thursday through Sunday schedule to provide additional time for planned lift maintenance.

The work is part of Killington’s broader $1.3 million investment in lift maintenance projects across the resort. This summer marks the first phase of a larger, two-phase project on the K-1 Gondola, with crews completing targeted maintenance on key components, including acceleration and deceleration systems, drive and brake systems, and other reliability-focused upgrades.

Phase 2 of the project is planned for summer 2027 and will require the K-1 Gondola to be closed for the majority of the summer while more extensive work is completed. Together, these improvements are an important investment in the long-term reliability of the gondola and the guest experience for years to come. Additional details about summer 2027 operations will be shared as plans are finalized.

For this season, the K-1 Gondola will continue daily fall operations through October 12.
