Wintergreen Resort Ski Vacation




Known as the single best ski resort in the South,



Wintergreen Resort in Virginia has quite a bit to offer



skiers. Featuring 11,000 acres with 19 trails,



Wintergreen has a top elevation of 3516 feet, with a



1003 foot vertical drop. Beginners, intermediates,



and experts will all find suitable trails at Wintergreen



Resort.





To accommodate skiers, there are six lifts, including



five chair lifts and one surface lift. There is also a



dedicated terrain park for snowboarding. The resort



is located near Charlottesville, Virginia, and you will



experience breathtaking views of the Appalachian



Mountains, and be surrounded by luxury that most



people only dream of. There is also a world class



golf course located near the resort.





Other activities include tubing, snowmobiling, tennis,



hiking, and horseback riding. The Out of Bounds



Adventure Center is a very popular attraction at the



resort with rock climbing and bungee trampolines.



The Outdoor Wilderness Leadership school offers



corporate retreats, real rock climbing, rappelling,



and mountain biking.





This is an ideal spot for a family vacation. You and



your children can participate in a variety of craft



workshops, enjoy campfires and storytelling, go on



hay rides, and enjoy many more community events



that are scheduled throughout the year. There are



many planned activities for families, including winter



hiking, skiing, snowboarding, tubing, and swimming



in a cozy indoor pool.





While vacationing at Wintergreen Resort, make time



to see the civil war history attractions, and visit the



local wineries as well. Also take time to enjoy the



Wintergreen Spa. At the spa, you can be pampered



with massages, body wraps, skin treatments, and



nail care. You can also visit the Mountaintop



Aquatic and Fitness Center which features the



latest in cardiovascular equipment, strength



equipment, heated pools, hot tubs, steam rooms,



and saunas.





The Wintergreen Performing Arts has many musical



performances throughout the year that are sure to



delight you and your family. If you are less interested



in culture, and more interested in nature, the



Wintergreen Nature Foundation is for you. This



foundation promotes the understanding and



conservation of natural resources that the Blue Ridge



Mountains are famous for.





No matter what your interests are, if getting away



from the hustle and bustle of city life is what you



want, this is the number one spot in the South for



fun, relaxation, and rejuvenation. The Wintergreen



Resort is open all year long, with activities that are



suitable for every season.
