Our winter playground is nestled in the Great Smoky Mountains with breathtaking views of the surrounding peaks – riding the chairlift has never been more rewarding.
Smooth, gentle slopes like Easy Way and Rabbit Hill, serviced by a triple chairlift, gives beginners the elbowroom they need to learn the basics and practice their skills. Intermediate skiers and snowboarders find plenty of action on Rock Island Run and Lower Omigosh, while seasoned experts can face the steepness found on Upper Omigosh. For skiers and snowboarders looking for a thrill, our Cat Cage Terrain Park delivers with ramps, rails and boxes.
At Cataloochee, everyone in the family, skiers and snowboarders, from novice to veteran, can carve a place of their own.
The Cataloochee Commitment: Snowmaking and Sustainable Slopes We are committed to making your skiing or snowboarding experience the best it can be by utilizing the most advanced snowmaking system in the Southeast. And as a member of the National Ski Areas Association’s Sustainable Slopes program, we are dedicated to lightening our footprint on the earth by protecting and conserving natural resources.
We take snowmaking seriously. In fact, we consider it a science. When temperatures drop below freezing, our snowmaking team goes to work creating a blizzard that rivals Mother Nature’s best efforts. With our automated snowmaking system, sensors placed on the mountain provide temperature and humidity level readings every few minutes so snow machines can be calibrated to maximize capacity. For you, this means consistent, dependable conditions from the first day of the season to the last.
We set the standard for snowmaking in the South – and we continue to raise the bar season after season.
At the lodge After a session on the mountain, you can relax with family and friends in front of the lodge’s double-sided fireplace. There’s nothing better than swapping stories about the day’s adventures on the slopes while enjoying the lodge’s good food and an aprés-ski drink. You might even catch a local bluegrass band playing. Don’t forget to stop in the lodge’s gift shop to pick up your favorite Cataloochee gear before you head down the mountain. Source: cataloochee.com |
