The slopes at
Appalachian Ski Mountain
are usually groomed
twice a day and the
short lines assure a day
full of skiing. With two
terrain parks featuring
30 unique rails, boxes,
jumps and jibs, Appal
Jam Terrain Park and
Appaljack Terrain Park
are the most innovative
in the region.
In addition,
Appalachian
Mountain Ski
Resort has an outdoor
ice arena with
refrigerated ice floor.
The ice arena is open
seven days a week and is
fully lighted to create
a wonderful ambiance for
skating under the stars.
Skaters and non-skaters
can watch the action on
the rink or warm up by
the rink-side bonfire.

or hockey skates.
