1/9 Runs/ski slopes Heavenly
The ski resort of Heavenly has runs of all difficulty levels and numerous difficult (ungroomed) forest runs. The treeline is around 3,000 metres and the slopes therefore lead down to the valleys through forest glades. The only area of sparse tree cover is in the very highest part of the ski resort. You can find ideal terrain here for powder skiing in the glades and bowls. When skiing or snowboarding in the resort, you can always enjoy beautiful views of deep-blue Lake Tahoe. Beginners can find ideal terrain at some base and mountain stations, with easy slopes and special lifts.
