Holiday Valley Resort - New York
Holiday Valley Resort is home to great skiing, great times and great friends.
56 slopes spread over 1100 acres on a 750 foot vertical drop give you plenty of variety no matter what kind of skiing or riding you like. 37 slopes are open at for night skiing and riding.
13 lifts carry over 23,850 skiers per hour and 95% snowmaking coverage keeps the slopes white, even when there's no snow in your own back yard.
Snowboarders are welcomed on the entire mountain. There's a half-pipe on Foxfire and 38 trails lit for night skiing.
Beginners will appreciate the gently pitched terrain of the School Haus and scenic Tannenbaum runs. Morning Star, Sunrise and Cindy's Run areas are an intermediate's paradise.
Advanced skiers gravitate toward the mogul runs and steep pitches of the Chute and Eagle areas, as well as The Wall, the steepest slope in western New York State.
Three base lodges provide all of the comforts and services you'd expect of a first class resort:
- great dining options in our restaurant, coffee shops and cafeterias

- knowledgable experts in our ski & snowboard schools and repair shop
- well-equipped, well-staffed day care
- top of the line equipment and clothing in our ski rental and retail shops
