Beaver Creek Nordic Ski Area
Located just 25 mins outside of town, the Beaver Creek Nordic Ski Area is a great place to explore if you’re looking for long winding trails through the trees, expansive views, and a little bit of elevation. The trails are located on USFS and BLM land. Enjoy 15 kilometers of groomed trails ranging from green (easy) to black (difficult). Don’t forget to stop by the Yurt for a quick respite from the cold!
If conditions are windy in the Beaver Creek parking lot, it is highly advisable to walk under the bridge and get up onto the trail system before making a decision. Typically, on the most windy day it is remarkably more calm once you get into the trees and further out onto the course.
Beaver Creek Ski Etiquette:
Only ski on trails. Snowshoeing is not allowed.
Choose the right time of day - warm and soft conditions are more likely to leave ruts which make for tough grooming and poor conditions for others.
Do not walk or ski over Nordic classic tracks.
Please park in the parking lot across the hwy from the ski area. Access to the trailhead can be found by following the trail that parallels the hwy and crossing underneath the bridge.
Dogs are not allowed at Beaver Creek Nordic Ski Area
Trail grooming requires time, specialized equipment, and knowledge. All grooming is done by LNSA, which relies on membership support. Please keep our trails in great condition by making a donation to winter trail upkeep.
