Two beautiful resorts, Canaan Valley Resort State Park and Timberline Four Seasons Resort, offer a combined 69 slopes and trails, six lifts and excellent snow making capacity. The vertical drop is 850 feet at Canaan Valley Ski Area, West Virginia's original ski resort. The vertical drop is 1,000 feet at Timberline Resort, home of the tow-mile long Salamander Run. The trails at both resorts are divided almost equally between beginner, intermediate and expert terrains, providing skiers of all abilties challenging slopes to match their skill level and both offer night skiing.
Professional instruction is available from friendly, experienced PSIA instructors.
The nationally recognized SKIwee program for children will provide plenty of adult supervision. Equipment rentals are available on-site at both resorts as well as from several shops in the Valley. There is ample rental equipment for snowboarders and both resorts accommodate boarders by giving lessons and offering special events. Timberline's 250-foot halfpipe is a local favorite. Spectacular views and good times await you and your family during a back country ski.
