About the Area
The Cherokee Ski Resort in the United States is located in the Appalachian Mountains in North Carolina. The resort is situated in the Great Smoky Mountains, which is part of the larger Appalachian Mountain range. The resort offers skiing and snowboarding on a variety of mountain aspects, including north-facing slopes, south-facing slopes, and east and west-facing slopes. The varying aspects provide a diverse range of terrain for skiers and snowboarders of all levels.
The top trails are the advanced runs; Oconaluftee and Unto These Hills have the steepest pitches and the best views. Few people know that the Eastern Band of the Cherokee Indians own and operate the resort. For beginners, the gentle Bunny Slope with its Magic Carpet lift is the best option. The resort also offers a tubing hill for non-skiing activities. For the best apres ski bar, head to the cozy Rendezvous Lounge for a hot toddy or craft beer.
