If you dream of a winter escape filled with adventure and scenic comforts, Somerset County, PA, awaits you! With its three top-notch ski resorts—Seven Springs, Hidden Valley, and Laurel Mountain—there’s something for everyone, from beginners to seasoned skiers.
Seven Springs: Fun, Comfort, and Endless Adventure
Families and adventure seekers will find something to excite them at Seven Springs Mountain Resort. The variety of slopes makes it perfect for beginners and more advanced skiers to tackle. This year, they’ve introduced new children’s group lessons so your kids can get expert instruction while having fun in the snow.
After a day on the slopes, you can retreat to the resort’s on-site hotel, which offers comfortable rooms steps away from all the action. The resort also features an indoor pool, bowling alley, arcade, and even snow tubing for extra winter fun. If you want to relax, the Foggy Goggle and Main Lodge offer great après-ski entertainment with live music and cozy spaces to unwind.
Hidden Valley Resort: Perfect for Families and New Skiers
Hidden Valley Resort’s gentle slopes and friendly atmosphere are perfect for young families or beginners. Plus, the lodging puts you close to the action when you are ready to take a break from the action. When you’re ready to take a break from the slopes, the resort has a cozy lodge where you can warm up and enjoy a meal or hot drink with a view of the snow-covered mountains.
The resort offers two exciting new programs this season: Valley Adventure Team for kids 8-17 and the Snow Angels women’s program, providing lessons tailored to different skill levels.
Laurel Mountain: Thrills for Experienced Skiers
If you want a more challenging experience, Laurel Mountain has you covered. It is home to the steepest ski slope in Pennsylvania and offers exciting runs for experienced snowboarders and skiers. This season, they’re launching a new steep terrain program to help advanced skiers sharpen their skills and prepare for bigger adventures at resorts like Vail or Breckenridge.
Although Laurel Mountain doesn’t have lodging on-site, it’s only a short drive to nearby accommodations, including cabins and hotels.
