About the mountain

Overview

Wintergreen Resort offers great views from its great location in the heart of the scenic Blue Ridge Mountains. Wintergreen is also a bona fide year-round resort — offering golf, tennis, a spa, swimming, and many other activities.

Wintergreen Mountain peaks at 4,000 feet, bringing cool summer temperatures and helping to attract and keep snow during the winter months. The resort offers 24 slopes and trails with a respectable vertical of 1,000 feet. There are 125 skiable acres. Wide-open beginner terrain is plentiful, along with plenty of steeps to keep the experts happy.

In recent years Wintergreen has invested millions of dollars in capital improvements, including the installation of two six-passenger, high-speed lifts. Wintergreen has also continually updated its state-of-the-art computerized snowmaking system. 100% of Wintergreen’s terrain is covered by fully automated snowmaking, which can cover the equivalent of a football field with 37 feet of snow in just 24 hours.

Wintergreen also has two tubing parks, including Virginia’s largest. One park offers a gentler ride, while the other offers hair-raising runs reaching 25-40 miles per hour.

Summer Activities

Wintergreen is a year-round resort. In fact, it isn’t uncommon for skiers to take in a round of golf after a morning on the slopes. The resort offers two golf courses: Devils Knob, the highest course in Virginia at an elevation of 4,000 feet, or the 27-hole Stoney Creek course, offered in the valley and open year-round.

Outdoor Adventure is a common theme at Wintergreen during the summer. The Outdoor Wilderness Leadership School offers corporate development opportunities, getting employees out of the office and into the mountains for personal development.

A 16-day, high-impact backpacking course is offered during the summer, providing an outdoor education curriculum that increases awareness in communication, leadership, self-reliance, motivation, goal setting, and technical skills.

You needn’t spend 16 days at Wintergreen to take advantage of the great scenery; a morning on the resort’s network of mountain bike trails might do the job. Kayaking, rock climbing/rappelling, and ropes instruction are also offered.

If you’re into tennis, you’ll note that Tennis magazine has ranked Wintergreen as one of its “top 50” resorts for the past 14 years. 19 clay courts are offered to visitors, as well as 3 indoor courts. Tennis instruction is available.

Horseback riding, swimming, canoeing/boating, and fishing are also popular activities at Wintergreen.
