About Wolf Ridge:
Wolf Ridge has become one of the southeast’s most popular resorts, offering a big mountain experience that’s family friendly and easily accessible. Located just a half hour from downtown Asheville and only five miles from Interstate 26, the resort holds something for skiers and snowboarders of all abilities and skill level.
Last season the resort expanded its terrain park once again, which holds a range of features, constantly updated to keep skiers and boarders guessing. Trails have also been widened and expanded to offer premier runs for all skill levels, whether its the epic black diamond known as The Bowl, or the long and wide, beginner-friendly Broadway run that goes down the middle of the slopes. In addition to slope expansion we have reduced our number of slope runs to 17 from the original 21. This change will allow us to offer the skier/boarder a better ski experience while making full use of the Lower lodge facility.
Passes: The Full Service Lower Lodge will be the location this year for all lift ticket/ rental /gift shop/ and food sales this year as well the place where all groups check in.
This facility offers a great variety of food service, three (3) large stone fire places to enjoy, rental building, gift shop and plenty of meeting and eating space.

Wolf Ridges experienced ski school team offers private lesson geared toward little ones 5 and up and a lift-assisted snow tube run.
