Top 10 Downhill Skiing Destinations

You're here: Home : Top 10 : Top 10 Downhill Skiing Destinations

Top Ten Number 1

Whistler, British Columbia

Any region good enough to host the 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games — and serve as the decade-plus home to the TELUS World Ski & Snowboard Festival — just has to have a spot in the ResortsandLodges.com Top 10. Learn More

Top Ten Number 2

Vail, Colorado

"Gargantuan" describes not only the girth of this mountain (seven miles wide), but also its amount of groomed trails — more than any other resort on earth. Four terrain parks, seven bowls and 5,289 skiable acreage means you’ll be finding open runs and fresh tracks to carve… Learn More

Top Ten Number 3

Park City, Utah

Somewhere along the way, amid the charm and aura of these old mining communities, somebody discovered where the real magic is — among the peaks. Park City promotes itself as having “the best snow on earth,” and at this altitude the snow falls both lightly and very often… Learn More

Top Ten Number 4

Winter Park, Colorado

Winter Park, Colo., is both savory and sweet, with a dash of daring. Skiers and boarders of all levels will be smitten with the varied terrain and consistent snowfall of these three peaks. The Winter Park peak sports the most green, blue and black runs, and it’s home to… Learn More

Top Ten Number 5

Aspen, Colorado

Only in Aspen: You’re sitting by a crackling fire sipping hot cocoa and telling friends about your day on the slopes when some vacationing celebrities saunter by. Aspen is a one-of-a-kind combination of world-class skiing, high-end boutiques, exquisite dining and a plethora… Learn More

Top Ten Number 6

Breckenridge, Colorado

The alluring village of Breckenridge has skiing/boarding for every level and a location that’s hard to beat: just a hop, skip and jump away from the top of the mountain. Breckenridge has four interlocking mountains — Peaks 7, 8, 9 and 10 — and a vertical rise of more than… Learn More

Top Ten Number 7

Lake Tahoe, California

Take California’s 274 days of sunshine, add the grand Sierra Nevadas and North American’s largest alpine lake, throw in seven ski resorts, more than 620 runs and 17,000 skiable acres — and you’d find yourself in Lake Tahoe, an area with more ski resorts and terrain than… Learn More

Top Ten Number 8

Jackson Hole, Wyoming

Be prepared to unleash your adventurous side when you ski in Jackson Hole! With the largest continuous vertical drop in the U.S., 3,000 acres of unpatrolled backcountry terrain, and steep bowls, natural jumps and tree-laden trails, you’ll never want to stop exploring what… Learn More

Top Ten Number 9

Killington, Vermont

Vermont is known seasonally for its colorful, crisp autumn, leaving winter to get lost in a snowstorm. But in the small town of Killington, nothing takes precedence over these epic peaks. Killington offers one of the world’s largest snowmaking systems and more than 250… Learn More

Top Ten Number 10

North Shore, Minnesota

If you’re looking for altitude in the Midwest, you’ll find it here, and this is the highest you can get! Home of Lutsen Mountains — four mountains, 90 runs and even a tramway across the Polar River Valley — the North Shore represents just about any kind of skiing/boarding… Learn More
