Mount Spokane Ski & Snowboard Park

Just 28 miles from downtown Spokane, Mount Spokane Ski & Snowboard Park is one of the closest and most convenient winter destinations for locals and visitors alike. This winter wonderland spans over 1,700 acres of skiable terrain, offering a mix of beginner, intermediate, and expert trails that weave through the beautiful pine forests of the mountain. For those who love night skiing, Mount Spokane offers extended hours with illuminated runs, giving you the unique opportunity to ski under the stars. The park is also home to designated areas for snowshoeing, providing an alternative way to enjoy the mountain’s natural beauty. With a vertical drop of over 2,000 feet, the mountain offers thrilling runs for skiers and snowboarders. 

At the same time, families and beginners can enjoy gentler slopes for a relaxed pace. After a full day of adventure, the park’s cozy lodge offers a warm retreat with various dining options and a welcoming atmosphere to unwind and refuel. Whether planning a day trip or an extended stay, Mount Spokane Ski & Snowboard Park is the ultimate winter playground for outdoor enthusiasts looking for snow-filled fun close to home.
