See What’s New for the 2024/25 Lake Tahoe Ski Season
Winter is never far away when you’re high up in the Sierra Nevada mountains, and our resorts are bringing the fun back with expanded services and shorter wait times.
If you’ve been dreaming about snagging first-chair on a powder day or plan to head out with the family for a vacation that makes you wonder if you are in a real-life Hallmark movie, there’s no destination quite like South Lake Tahoe. Find out what’s new and what to expect at Lake Tahoe Ski Resorts this upcoming 2024/2025 season.
Heavenly Mountain Resort
The Toyota Air and Après event, tentatively scheduled for March 1-3, promises an action-packed experience. The resort will construct an impressive 45-foot jump at the base of a World Cup trail. Expect professional athletes to astound with their gravity-defying tricks under the mountain’s illuminated night sky.
For those seeking a different experience, Brews and Views will offer monthly gatherings beginning in December at Lakeview Lodge. These events will provide breathtaking Lake Tahoe vistas, along with culinary delights, music, and beer tastings from local breweries.
Heavenly Resort will continue with a reservation-based parking system for winter 2024/2025. Click this link for more details.
If you are new to Heavenly, it can seem daunting to navigate the four base lodges, with two in California and two in Nevada. Click here for the basics, including where to park, shuttle bus services, and how to access the mountain.
Kirkwood Mountain Resort
Kirkwood is known for deep powder and runs for even the most avid enthusiast to test their mettle.
New this season is the My Epic App, which features mobile passes and lift tickets, allowing skiers and boarders to skip the ticket window.
Sierra-at-Tahoe
Sierra-at-Tahoe has harnessed the power of nature, reshaping the mountain to introduce expansive bowl skiing. This year they’ve joined the Ikon Pass. They’ve also got great terrain for beginners if you’re new to the sport, or bringing a long a friend who’s ready to see what it’s all about.
In 2021, the fire swept across 80% of the mountain’s terrain, initially appearing as a setback. However, the removal of damaged trees has had a surprising and positive outcome. It has significantly expanded Sierra-at-Tahoe’s offerings, resulting in new trails and the opening of previously untouched skiing areas for the upcoming 2023-24 ski season. Among these changes, the beloved West Bowl, which underwent extensive clearing, has transformed into a genuine alpine bowl skiing and snowboarding paradise.
