Heavenly
The Perfect Blend of Day and Night.
Overlooking the sapphire-blue waters of Lake Tahoe, Heavenly is one of the most unique snowsports destinations on the planet.
A vacation at Heavenly is all about choices. With more recreation and entertainment options than any other winter resort destination, you'll have plenty of decisions to make at Heavenly.
For starters, Heavenly is one of the largest ski resorts in North America, boasting 4,800 acres of ski-able terrain and a whopping 3,500 ft / 1,067 metre vertical drop. Do you ski California or Nevada? Do you take in the jaw-dropping views of America’s largest alpine lake, or the spectacular beauty of the high Nevada desert?
Will it be 34 miles / 55 km of wide-open, groomed cruisers? … The 1,600 ft / 488 metre plunges in the double-black Mott and Killebrew canyons? … Or the most incredible tree skiing anywhere? Or will you be drawn by our multiple progressive terrain parks or a spin down Heavenly’s super tubing hill – accessed by a 565 ft / 172 metre long elevated magic carpet? So many decisions.
And all of this happens before the sun goes down. When night falls, there's a virtual “Pandora's Box” of choices and temptations. On-mountain exhilaration yields to après ecstasy in the form of Vegas-style casinos, all-night dance clubs, world-class entertainment and five-star dining.
So what do you choose? Mother Nature? Lady Luck? A little of both?
No matter what you choose, Heavenly will test your decision-making abilities like no other winter destination – but remember … choose wisely. There are only so many hours in a day … and night. Make them all count at Heavenly.
