Moonlight Basin Ski Resort
Montana
Those who visit Moonlight Basin discover a bigger world of skiing, adventure, and relaxation tucked away in their own undiscovered playground. Here, a sense of freedom, a taste of wilderness, and a quiet luxury leave you feeling revived and fully alive. Part of the Biggest Skiing in America®, Moonlight Basin is located just 18 miles north of Yellowstone National Park and 50 miles south of Bozeman. Committed to exceptional guest experiences and genuine Montana hospitality, it truly is the best of Montana.
The opening of the Moonlight Basin Ski Resort on the north face of Lone Peak in Big Sky, Montana, marked the first opening of a destination ski area in over 20 years. Now entering its 9th season, Moonlight Basin has grown into a first-class, year-round destination resort. 101 mapped trails, chutes and glades comprise more than 1,900 skiable acres with a vertical drop of 4,150’. The terrain is served by 7 lifts, including Montana's only high-speed, six-passenger chair. At Moonlight Basin you'll have lots of elbow room, short or no lift lines and no crowds. Plus, the terrain's northerly exposure ensures the more than 400 inches of powder that falls each year stays light and dry.
The Headwaters Chair brings skiers and riders in The Headwaters Terrain, some of the steepest inbounds terrain in the Rockies previously only accessible by hiking. Future expansion plans include 3,500 acres and 12 lifts, positioning Moonlight as an attractive addition to Montana's ski areas.
Moonlight Basin is more than just great skiing and riding. It's a feeling; friendly, unpretentious, laid-back, a feeling that makes you feel as welcome as you do in your own home. Together with breath-taking scenery and exciting terrain, visitors are welcomed by unmatched friendliness and award-winning customer service. In addition to a top rate SnowSports school, great weekly programs, and other amenities, Mountain Guides are available for mountain tours and answer any questions you may have about Moonlight Basin and the surrounding area. A complimentary tour of the mountain is available to all first-time visitors at Moonlight Basin.
Moonlight Basin and Big Sky Resort have teamed up to offer the Biggest Skiing in America® ticket! Skiers and riders can access over 5,300 acres of interconnected trails and lifts, all on one ticket!
Skiing is not the only activity that makes Moonlight Basin unique. Visitors can also enjoy spa treatments, a health club, dogsledding, snowshoe tours, and swimming in a heated outdoor pool. A concierge service is available to arrange a variety of local activities, including tours of Yellowstone National Park, fly fishing, rafting, canoeing, mountain bike tours, guided hiking tours and rock climbing. Moonlight Basin is also the proud home of The RESERVE, their private, Jack Nicklaus Signature golf course.
Development of the area has been done with conservation in mind, using wildlife experts and other environmental consultants in the planning process. Currently, over half of the parcel has been placed into conservation easements and under other protected status.
