Northstar

Set in the Martis Valley at 6,330 feet, Northstar California combines 3,170 acres of varied terrain with sophisticated mountain atmosphere. The resort's design brings together impeccable grooming, extensive tree skiing, and a refined village experience. Since its 1972 founding, Northstar has evolved into a destination that balances challenging terrain with family-friendly amenities, creating a distinctive Lake Tahoe experience where outdoor adventure meets mountain luxury.

Twenty lifts, including a high-speed gondola and multiple express chairs, serve Northstar's 100 trails across 2,280 vertical feet. The lift network expertly connects distinct mountain zones, from the sheltered learning areas near mid-mountain to the advanced gladed terrain of Lookout Mountain. The Promised Land Express and Backside Express chairs access some of Tahoe's finest tree skiing, while the Big Springs Gondola provides a seamless connection from the village to the mountain's upper reaches.
