But Sierra's slopes aren't just for hardcore skiers and shredders. With ample beginner terrain, progression parks and excellent learn to ski and ride programs, the resort is perfect for families of all abilities.
The Mountain
Expert skiers and snowboarders flock to Sierra-at-Tahoe thanks to the abundant deep and steep terrain. For a backcountry experience, head to Huckleberry Canyon, where you can enjoy cliffs, cornices, chutes, tree-skiing and powdery bowls, all easily accessible through five backcountry gates. Don't feel like venturing through the gates on your own? Then book a Backcountry Snowcat Tour and let an expert lead the way.
Snowboarders will love Sierra's five terrain parks, each featuring an array of creative jumps, jibs and other features, as well as its superpipe, which Transworld Snowboarding ranked among the world's best.
Beginners won't feel left out thanks to Broadway and Easy Street, where 100 acres of beginner-only terrain and easy-to-ride conveyor lifts make the learning experience a blast. Book a lesson with one of Sierra's world-class ski and snowboard instructors here.
