Area Description
 Ober Gatlinburg is a resort within a resort...within a resort town! The ski area is located on the pinnacle of Mt. Harrison, surrounded by a mountain of four season fun. Located at the foot of the ski area is an Alpine Slide, a 60 feet Bungee Tower, Municipal Black Bear Habitat, Go-Kart Track, Water Rides, Spider Web, Bungee Run, Batting Cage, Kiddie Land, Arcade and more! There's a 62,000 sqare foot Tramway Mall, which hosts a beautiful ice skating rink, shops, dining and more.
All of this is located three miles up Ski Mountain Road from downtown Gatlinburg. You can also take The Ober Gatlinburg Aerial Tramway which is one of America's largest cable cars.
It departs every twenty minutes from downtown Gatlinburg, going directly to Ober
Gatlinburg All Seasons Amusement
Park atop Mt. Harrison, and offers a magnificent panorama of Gatlinburg and the Smokies.
For those unaware, Gatlinburg is in the heart of the popular Great Smoky Mountains and the resort town offers thousands of shops, festivals, and fun for the whole family.
...And then there's the ski resort.
After all, that's what this page is supposed to be about, right?
 In the true spirit of a real mountain community,
Ober Gatlinburg Resort is outstanding in its approach to genuine hospitality, sensible pricing and comfortable accommodation. Stay close to the slopes in
one of our cozy

real mountain winter vacation.
Ober Gatlinburg has eight ski trails serviced by two quads, one double and one surface lift. Snowmaking equipment blankets 100 percent of the slopes. They offer the Smoky Mtn. Snow Sport School, rentals, retail ski shop, snack bars, a food court, cafe, and lounge.
Slopes are maintained with the latest in snow-grooming equipment to provide a smoother, more consistent surface, creating enjoyable skiing conditions.
