Your All-Season Destination for Alpine Adventure

Snow Valley Mountain Resort has been a treasured destination and the longest continually operating ski resort in Southern California since 1924. Located on State Route 18 above Running Springs, 11 miles west of Big Bear Lake, Snow Valley features some of the region’s best beginner terrain, award-winning learning centers, and Southern California’s only lift-served sledding. In 2023 the resort joined Big Bear Mountain Resort after the iconic destination was acquired by BBMR’s parent company, Alterra Mountain Company.
