Area Description
Timberline Mountain is located high up along the higher range of the Alleghany Mountains in West Virginia. With its 4268-foot summit, you are sure to find beautiful snow and fantastic views of the valley floor and surroundings.
Timberline is well known for its wide slopes and varied terrain, but it is also home to the southeast’s longest ski slope – Salamander – an easy two-mile green trail winding down the mountain.
Intermediate skiers will find wide blue ski trails with crazy vista points that will provide great photo opportunities.
Adventurous and advanced skiers will really enjoy the laid-back mountain attitude and dedicated tree skiing (more than 5 glades are open when conditions allow).
All of Timberline’s main slopes offer a 1000-foot vertical drop.
What’s New?
There are a lot of exciting things going on at Timberline as the resort is undergoing over $10-million of capital improvements this off season – including a pair of new lifts – after Perfect North Slopes purchased the resort. Other renovations include regrading the learning area, extensive upgrades to the snowmaking system, and a remodeled rental shop amongst other items.
Ski School
Alpine skiing, Snowboarding, Telemark Skiing, Cross Country, Adaptive programs… you name it… Timberline’s ski school is truly dedicated to offer beginner and advanced skiers the means to improve their skills. You’ll quickly notice that nearly all their instructors carry more than one certification from PSIA and/or AASI, and that their continuing education is something they like to “brag about”. Several of their instructors have more than 30 years teaching on the snow. Their kids program will always impress, and set the little ones up for success with so much fun!
