Whitefish Mountain Resort Terrain
Whitefish Mountain Resort is a family-friendly resort for skiers and snowboarders of all ability levels. Located in the Rocky Mountains of Northwest Montana, it’s famous for its history, snow-ghosts, vast terrain, unsurpassed views of Glacier National Park and the Canadian Rockies, and a laid-back, friendly environment.
While Whitefish offers wide open spaces, abundant snow, and short lift lines, it’s also surprisingly easy to get to. Whitefish has an Amtrak depot and the resort is only 19 miles north of Glacier International Airport in Kalispell, MT.
