ski destinations

Slopes worth visiting

Ski destinations are places known for downhill skiing and related winter sports—mountain resorts with slopes, lifts, and lodging that attract visitors during snow season.

The phrase typically refers to established resort areas rather than any hill with snow: Aspen and Vail are premier ski destinations.

Travel publications rank ski destinations by terrain, snowfall, and amenities.
