Entertainment & Activities

This ski station might not have many runs but the one's it does have are challenging and the price can't be beat. Summer activities are great too with mountain biking, hiking and a dry luge course taking center stage. Don't forget to grab a burger at the restaurant too. They're to die for.

The highest mountain in the region! It's a long hike but breathtaking views the whole way along and the summit lookout over the lake is well worth the journey.
