Hemlock Valley Ski Resort
Located about a 45-minute drive away, Hemlock Valley is a smaller resort and an affordable alternative to some of the region's big-name mountains. It has 35 runs, a vertical drop of 397m/1,300ft for downhill skiing, snowboarding, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, tobogganing and a tube park. On-hill ski-in/ski-out accomodation is available.
Although almost half the alpine runs are rated expert, many of them are shortcuts between less difficult routes making them ideal for those intermediate skiers wanting to stretch themselves to the next level, one short run at a time.
