Mt. Shasta Ski Park

Mt. Shasta Ski Park is located on the north side of Mount Shasta in Northern California and is one of America's most distinctive ski resorts in terms of location and character. Skiing takes place high up on the slopes of the volcano, with Mount Shasta as a constant backdrop, which gives a clear alpine feeling despite the fact that the resort is relatively small.

The terrain is varied and natural, with wide slopes, open spaces and elements of forest skiing. The drop height is clear and the ride is characterized by a consistent slope rather than short transport distances. For more experienced skiers, there are steeper sections and the possibility of off-piste in connection with the lift system when conditions allow, while the lower parts are well suited for calmer piste skiing.

Mt. Shasta Ski Park has long been an important facility for local skiers in Northern California and Southern Oregon. The focus is on skiing rather than ancillary activities, and the atmosphere is relaxed and clearly rooted in the area. The combination of altitude, snow security and the dramatic landscape means that skiers often remember the place as much for the environment as for the skiing itself.
