Take A Ski Trip To Schweitzer Mountain
Schweitzer Mountain is considered one of the best family-friendly ski resorts in the Pacific Northwest and offers amazing views of the surrounding town (Sandpoint) as well as of Canada and Lake Pend Oreille.
Besides its many trails, it also offers 32 kilometers of Nordic trails, which can be used for snowshoeing or cross-country skiing in the winter, or mountain biking in the summer. After you’re done playing on the mountain, take advantage of the shopping, dining and available spa experiences available to you.
Schweitzer Mountain is a must-see for anybody considering a winter trip to northern Idaho. In fact, even if you aren't planning a winter trip to Idaho, you should think about it if you like skiing or snowboarding. Schweitzer Mountain is Idaho's flagship ski destination, offering all of the first-rate facilities of other states' top ski resorts but with MUCH LESS tourists.
This mountain is massive, with a variety of terrain, and it frequently feels as though you have many of the runs to yourself. If you can schedule a trip during the week, this is almost certainly the case. Even if you don't ski or snowboard, the spectacular vistas of Lake Pend Oreille in winter are worth the journey up the mountain. Schweitzer Mountain has a lot of good restaurants and stores, as well as slope-side accommodation.
