6 Things to Do at Leavenworth Ski Hill
- Downhill Skiing and Snowboarding
This is a great place for beginners to hit the slopes! Featuring two well-groomed ski hills (easy and moderate level) and a rope tow service, these slopes provide endless excitement that you’ll be getting back in line for again and again. If you are still in the learning process, private and group lessons are available on the weekends!
- Leavenworth Ski Jump
This is the only American ski jump on the west coast! D Hill offers three different ski jump levels, so you can choose the one that best fits your experience level. Beginners are encouraged to start on the landing hill. More experienced jumpers are welcome to the 15-meter and 27-meter jumps. If ski jumping is something you and your partner would like to learn, coaches are available by appointment.
- Leavenworth Ski Hill Tubing
The Lt. Michael Adams Tubing Park is an exhilarating way to enjoy the snow! Simply sit in your inner tube and let gravity do the rest of the work for you. After riding a rope tow to the top of a 100-foot hill, you will plummet back to the base at rapid speed with the wind whipping through your hair and the world whizzing past you! It’s a great way to enjoy the snow and create plenty of laughs and memories in the process.
- Nordic Skiing and Snowshoeing
For a laid-back activity, we highly suggest giving nordic skiing and snowshoeing a try! This requires little to no effort as you glide upon the snow’s surface and take in all the beautiful views that surround the region. You will have 26 km of track to explore and skating lanes that offer a variety of terrain throughout Leavenworth.
- Fat Biking
If you’re not familiar with fat bikes, they are built for adventure! The abnormally large tires are designed to carry you through the snow. That way, you can enjoy a leisurely bike ride or enthralling excursion down the Leavenworth Ski Hill mountain bike trail, even in the thick of winter. Be sure to check the Fat Bike page before embarking in case of any closures due to weather.
- Enjoy Hot Cocoa in the Ski Lodge
Since 1936, this lovely lodge has provided warmth and comfort to Leavenworth Ski Hill visitors. It’s the perfect escape to warm up around the fire, enjoy a nice cup of hot chocolate, and rejuvenate before continuing your adventures. The lodge is also available for private event rental! For our future wedding parties, this could be a great place to host a bachelor or bachelorette party!

Hello!
I have heard wonderful things about the Pine River Ranch! I am writing to see if you ever donate to school auctions. We will have 350 guests at our annual benefit auction, and many of the families love to go to Leavenworth for weekend getaways. We would love the opportunity to promote your business to our families! Let me know if there is a way to proceed with a donation request! Thanks so much!
Annie,
Thanks for the kind comments. We do support schools, I was a teacher and my wife is still a teacher, to help students especially when it goes directly into classrooms. We do limit our donations on a yearly level so the best time to get in touch with us is the first few months of the year before everyone has asked. Thanks again and thank you for doing work for students.
