Slope offering, variety of runs at the ski resort Palisades Tahoe
The Palisades Tahoe ski resort offers runs for all levels of difficulty and numerous challenging (ungroomed) tree runs. Most of the descents lead through forest clearings down to the valley. Only in the uppermost area of the ski resort will you find sparse forests. This makes it an ideal terrain for deep powder skiing in the glades and bowls beneath the breathtaking granite walls. Beginners will find perfect slopes at High Camp, while advanced skiers can challenge themselves at Granite Chief, Washeshu Peak, and KT-22. While skiing and snowboarding, you’ll often enjoy stunning views of the deep blue Lake Tahoe.
