Slope offering, variety of runs at the ski resort Heavenly
The Heavenly ski resort offers runs of all difficulty levels and numerous challenging (ungroomed) tree runs. The tree line is around 3,000 meters, so the slopes lead down through forest clearings. Only in the uppermost area of the ski resort are there sparse forests. This makes it an ideal terrain for powder skiing in the glades and bowls. While skiing and snowboarding, you always have a magnificent view of the deep blue Lake Tahoe. Beginners will find their area at several base and mountain stations, with easy slopes and dedicated lifts.
