Great snowmaking makes Eldora a safe choice anytime, come on up and enjoy nearly 700 acres of Rocky Mountain terrain.
Eldora has challenging steeps and newly improved glade terrain on the Corona side and sensational cruising down well-groomed slopes on the front side. Three awesome terrain parks are built with mulitiple lines to drop depending on ability levels. Hidden tree runs are all over the mountain and you can always find a stash of fresh snow!
To the side of the mountain are a variety of cross-country terrain, such as a Nordic center with 40 km of marked and groomed trails. If you're looking for skiing with the relatives, skier's right of the mountain has an area just for family fun.
