Ski holidays in the United States

US ski resorts are built for good snow days and easy good times. Expect big mountains, quick lifts, and long, well-groomed runs, plus lively towns with plenty to do after the slopes. From the high Rockies and Wasatch to the Sierra and the Northeast, the scenery changes, but the idea stays the same: great snow and a warm welcome. Winters run long with reliable conditions, dry powder in the interior West, crisp corduroy and tree-lined trails back East. Beginners get clear learning zones and first-class ski schools. Advanced skiers can mix open bowls, glades, and quieter side trails. Off the hill, you’ll find cozy cafés, hot springs or spas in some spots, live music, and simple, walkable villages. Travel is straightforward too. Many resorts sit a short drive from major airports, and once you’re there, getting around is easy. Good snow, smooth logistics, and lots of ways to unwind after last chair; that’s what the US ski experience is all about.

Best for beginners

Breckenridge is a favourite for first-timers, with wide, gentle slopes and excellent ski schools. Keystone makes learning easy with dedicated beginner zones and smooth green runs close to the base.

Best for snowboarders

Jackson Hole is legendary for challenging steeps, deep snow, and big mountain lines. Freestyle fans should head to Park City for its well-kept parks and halfpipes, plus miles of cruisy groomers.

Best for après

Aspen brings a buzzing scene of stylish bars, live music, and standout dining. For a refined wind-down, Vail pairs cozy lounges with upscale restaurants and alpine chic villages.

Best for families

Deer Valley is known for perfectly groomed pistes, great ski schools, and a smooth, stress-free mountain experience. Beaver Creek adds family zones, easy logistics, and those famous warm cookies at day’s end.

Best for groups

Steamboat is ideal for mixed-ability groups, with tree skiing, long cruisers, and a friendly town packed with hot springs and dining. For big vertical and dramatic scenery, Telluride delivers unforgettable terrain and a charming historic core. If you’re East Coast based, Killington offers a huge trail network and reliable snow close to major cities.

Best for luxury

For five-star stays, spa days, and top dining, look to Aspen and Vail (see above) along with premium lodging options in Deer Valley and Beaver Creek, all pairing polished service with exceptional snow experiences.
