Skiing & Snowboarding
Skiing and snowboarding are offered both at the resort on our fully groomed family-friendly ski and snowboard hill and at numerous world-class ski resorts within a short drive of Granlibakken: Palisades Tahoe, offering access to both Alpine Meadows and Olympic Valley, and Homewood Mountain Resort. Just slightly further away are Sugar Bowl, Northstar and Boreal.
Backcountry skiing
Take the trail less traveled. Enjoy guided or self-guided backcountry skiing experiences in the Tahoe National Forest or at one of Lake Tahoe's surrounding state parks. Granlibakken guests also have direct access to a 1.5-mile trail around the property, and a groomed access trail (flat-groomed, without stride-skiing tracks) to Paige Meadows loop when conditions permit.
Cross-Country Skiing
Granlibakken's 74-acre alpine property offers plenty of scenic Sierra terrain year-round. In the winter, cross-country skiers can explore trails surrounded by a stunning, snow-covered backdrop. Cross-country ski rentals are available in our ski hut.
