Come back and rediscover hectares of great terrain! The entire terrain is serviced by 25 lifts to avoid long lift lines.

The Summit at Snowqualmie has two terrain parks including the already mentioned super pipe. The parks have been ranked amongst the "Top 10  Parks in the U.S. and Canada" by Freeskier Magazine in 2009. They are full of great innovative features that will give your skills a boost! Besides a variety of ski and snowboard lessons for beginners the Ski & Snowboard School also offers Freestyle Camps. Learn to ride in the park like a pro within only two sessions!

There is also a bunch of private ski schools available that all have a long tradition of teaching skiing and snowboarding so whatever kind of program you´re looking for you will certainly find one that matches your needs.
