On the slopes

Designed to host the 1988 Winter Olympic, ski Nakiska for consistent snow conditions even in the early part of the season - thanks to one of the best snowmaking systems in the world. The 28 slopes cater primarily for intermediate skiers, with plenty of wide-open Olympic-length trails for cruising and carving. The beginner slopes are mainly at the bottom of the mountain, while experts should head for the top. Snowboarders will enjoy a terrain park and half-pipe.

Off the slopes

Accommodation for Nakiska is at two hotels just five minutes (2.5kms) from the slopes, while the Finish Line Lounge offers après-ski drinks, pub food, and live music in the lounge at weekends. There are plenty of other activities to keep you busy off the slopes, including sleigh rides, tobogganing, snowshoeing and ice-skating, and the hotels offer a swimming pool, Jacuzzi, steam room and exercise area.
