At Northstar, guests discover a one-of-a-kind winter oasis complete with freshly groomed slopes, an average annual snowfall of more than 350 inches, fireside hot cocoas, and expansive mountainscapes.

Northstar’s diverse terrain and 100 trails allow families the chance to curate an on-mountain adventure everyone will love. With more than 3,000 acres, guests can progress together in family learning zones, explore over 400 acres of advanced terrain on Lookout Mountain, or test their legs on Logger’s Loop – the longest run at Northstar which extends 1.4 miles. The truly adventurous among the bunch can ride bumps and glades on mile-long runs on The Backside. ​
