Featuring more than 2500 acres of ski area and 75
trails, Durango Mountain Ski Resort has much to
offer skiers of all levels. The resort claims that there
are approximately two people per acre on their
slopes during operation hours. The crowds are small,
and lift lines do not exist.

Located in Colorado, the top elevation is 10822 feet
with a 2030 vertical drop. There are eleven lifts,
including nine chair lifts and two surface lifts. You
can find lodging at the resort, or in the town of
Durango, which is nearby. If you stay at the resort,
make sure that you actually visit the town while
you are there. While the town is small, there is
much to see and do.

Rentals are available for both ski and snowboarding
equipment, and private and group lessons are also
available at the Durango Mountain Resort. There are
plenty of activities and events both at the resort and
in Durango to keep everyone in your family happy.
When it comes to family ski vacations, this is one
you don’t want to miss!
