Sun Valley Vacations, Sun Valley Ski Resorts and Ski Packages
Sun Valley is the very definition of the American winter vacation, being the nation's first destination ski resort. Discover for yourself why Sun Valley attracts such an interesting mix of Hollywood movie stars and Olympic champions. Sun Valley boasts a world-class mountain, with a quality ski school, experienced instructors and a rich variety of apres-ski activities. Casual elegance is the style at the resort's stately Sun Valley Lodge and Sun Valley Inn. Sun Valley continues to be ranked among the best in North America (Conde Nast 1997; Ski Magazine 1996).
Glide peacefully over miles and miles of pristine Idaho beauty. Idaho's Nordic trails run deep through national forests, state parks and ski resorts. In addition, the Idaho Department of Parks and Recreation offers thirteen separate trail systems across the state—several with overnight yurt lodging. For a small fee, the Park N' Ski program provides a permit for annual or temporary parking at the trail heads. Stretch out, take a deep breath and get reacquainted with your inner wilderness.
Idaho has more groomed snowmobile trails than any other western state and some of the most spectacular scenery you'll ever see. You can ride freely through freshly blanketed valleys, across frozen lakes and over wide-open plains. Gas, food, and lodging are nearby in friendly Idaho towns, and many resorts and guest ranches welcome snowmobilers. You’ll find the good trails everywhere you go, without all the crowds. So drop the remote and crank up the fun throttle.
Family is not a spectator sport in Idaho. There’s a lot more wintertime activities to take in, like the Coeur d'Alene Resort Holiday Light Show and the McCall Winter Carnival, just two of Idaho’s annual events in winter. Many resorts offer sledding and tubing fun, and ice skating can be found both indoors and out. Try a horse-drawn sleigh ride or take a hay wagon to a yurt for dinner. At the end of the day, you can cozy up to a fire and passionately debate snow angel aesthetics over a cup of hot chocolate. Idaho is a winter wonderland, so get outside and wonder.
