If you can see it, ski it

Squaw Valley Ski Holiday Guide

“Heaven is.. a powder day in Squaw! The terrain to skiers left from the top of the Granite Chief is easily accessible, but every run feels like a new adventure! You can keep traversing for what feels like miles and pick a different line each time.” Karen, Reservations Consultant.

Everyone we know who's been on a ski holiday to Squaw Valley has loved it. Squaw Valley Resort has Californian charm in spades with a relaxed and laid back attitude, quirky appeal and some truly outstanding skiing.

At Squaw Valley, the mantra is 'if you can see it ski it' and the terrain is a mix of cruisy beginner and intermediate runs, more challenging pitches for strong intermediates and for the experts, there's no shortage of cornices, tree runs and steeps to play on.

The snow at Squaw Valley and the other Lake Tahoe resorts (Heavenly and Northstar) is world renowned - overnight dumps of snow here can be staggering and more often than not you'll be skiing the next day under an azure Californian sky.

The developments to the new base village at Squaw Valley have hugely improved the choice of shops, bars and restaurants and have also added the Intrawest designed and built Village at Squaw, a fantastic choice of high quality condos right at the base.

Our favourite luxury hotel in Squaw Valley is the Resort at Squaw Creek, located in it's own grounds near the resort base and with direct access to the ski area from it's own private chairlift.
