Mountain Creek Activities
A wide number of non-skiing activities are available during winter months.While most visitors journey to Mountain Creek to ski or snowboard, there are a variety of other activities available to keep non-skiers entertained for a day. Snowtubing is the most popular of these choices as it is the only on-snow option. With over 20 lanes dedicated to tubing, lines tend to be short and the sliding time is kept to its maximum.
Many visitors enjoy Mountain Creek’s new Alpine Mountain Coaster. The attraction is a hybrid of a traditional alpine slide and a self-controlled rollercoaster. Guests have the option of riding alone or in tandem (with a weight limit of 330 lbs). The coaster zips through the resort’s waterpark and guests can regular the speed of the coaster with handbrakes.
Ziplines are also open in winter months. Guests have the option of descending in a traditional zipline harness or in a two person seat called the “Soaring Eagle.”
For those looking for a less exciting and more pampered experience, the nearby Crystal Springs resort offers two top notch spas, both of which have been ranked in the top 30 in the USA. The Elements Spa is located at the Minerals Resorts and Spa, while the Reflections Spa is located at the Grand Cascade Lodge.
