Skiing at Wintergreen in Charlottesville, VA

Choosing the right resort with FamilyFun

by Pippin Ross, Barbara Rowley and Candyce Stapen
Skiing and snowboarding are lifelong sports the whole family can enjoy while staying fit. Several years ago the ski industry realized that to stay alive, it needed to embrace the younger generation. Opening the slopes to snowboarders and new "ski and play" instruction methods has ensured a new generation of enthusiasts and made it easier than ever for parents to get their kids onto the hills.

If your family is looking for a great ski resort that accommodates beginners, Wintergreen in Charlottesville, Virginia is the perfect destination.

WINTERGREEN--
CHARLOTTESVILLE, VIRGINIA

This 11,000-acre ski resort, located in the heart of the Blue Ridge mountains, is known for its children's programs.
