Boasting a whopping thirty six ski trails ranging from beginner to double black diamond, Blue Mountain Resort is the perfect winter getaway.

Take some time away from the hustle and bustle of every day life to check out Blue Mountain, situated at a vertical of 720 feet. Make use of the trails, two terrain parks, and a super pipe and relax on the way up on one of the resort’s fourteen lifts. But if you’re the impatient kind, don’t fret! There are 4 high-speed express chairs to get you on the slopes faster.

If you’re new to skiing or snowboarding, Blue Mountain is the perfect place to try your hand at a new sport. The resort’s two beginner areas are great for novice adults and children alike. The Discover Skiing & Snowboarding Newbie Program is also offered to teach beginners the basics and a competitive racing program is available for speed demons looking for a little extra challenge.

When the times when you’re not plunging downhill on skis or a snowboard, Blue Mountain has some great alternative activities available. Bring out your adventurous side by trying your hand at snowmobiling, snowshoeing, caving, ice fishing or horseback riding. If shopping’s your thing, The Village is home to more than twenty retail shops. Blue Mountain is also a great place to pamper yourself, as the resort offers a variety of spa services and treatments. Cap off the night with a visit to a local art gallery or restaurant.

There are plenty of places near Blue Mountain to rest your head at the end of the day. Homes and condominiums can be rented in the area and the on-site Blue Mountain Inn provides easy access to all activities.

If you’re getting a little stir crazy during the snowy season, get out and enjoy it! Head to Blue Mountain and hit the slopes.
