Not every Sun Valley winter activity requires a lift ticket. The surrounding area supplies visitors with an endless variety of spectacular scenery and sporting diversions. In Sun Valley, you’re only limited to your imagination.
Cross-country ski the Harriman Trail, the staging area for the Boulder Mountain Tour, one of the nation’s pre-eminent cross country ski races. Or strap on some snowshoes for a moonlit walk and dinner at one of Galena Lodge’s full moon dinner nights. Take the family on a heli-skiing adventure in the magnificent Sawtooth Mountain range. Or turn a few circles at the legendary Sun Valley Ice Rink, where you might rub shoulders with Olympic skaters.
Jump on a snowmobile and explore the diverse beauty of the Sawtooth National Recreation Area. Or book a trip with friends for a guided backcountry ski tour where you’ll overnight in cozy Mongolian-style yurts. Spend a day mushing a pack of huskies, hop a horse-drawn sleigh for a hearty dinner at secluded Trail Creek Cabin or test your fly fishing skills in the heart of January on the Big Wood River.
The possibilities are endless. With so much to occupy your time, a return trip to Sun Valley will definitely be in order.
