Whitefish Ski Holidays
Summary
- Family Friendly
- Village Charm
- Quick Transfer Time
Whitefish Mountain Resort is an authentic, laid-back resort in the Northwest Montana Rockies, just seven miles from the beautiful town of Whitefish.
The formerly named 'Big Mountain Resort' receives more than 300 inches of snow each year over 3,000 acres of world-class tree skiing, alpine bowls and long cruisers with the stunning backdrop of Glacier National Park.
With new one stop flights via Salt Lake City into Kalispell (Glacier Park International Airport), this previously hard to reach resort is now more accessible and makes an attractive option for couples looking for a romantic holiday or groups looking to have fun both on and off the mountain.
The former railroad town of Whitefish, located in north west Montana, is an authentic American ski town, with coloured store fronts, traditional western hotels, a relaxed vibe and pioneer spirit. If you stay in town, it's just a 10 minute shuttle ride to the resort, and you'll be closer to the buzzing nightlife.
Whitefish is also easily accessible from Canada (Fernie is only two hours away across the border), making it an excellent option as part of a Rockies Loop Ski Safari. Alternatively, use a free stopover in Salt Lake City to combine with America's largest ski resort, Park City.
Every holiday is tailor-made, just for you.
