Mountain Skiing in the Heart of Wisconsin

Why fly when you don’t have to? Let’s face it—airline travel just isn’t what it used to be! It’s more expensive, it takes hours longer for check-in and security, every flight is crowded, it costs money even for small bags (let alone ski gear), and delays are commonplace. All this, plus you lose 2 vacation days — getting there and getting home—for a Western ski trip!

Why bother? Granite Peak has every bit as much variety as most out west ski areas, and gives you more options nearby for dining, lodging and entertainment — at a fraction of the cost! Granite Peak is an easy drive-to destination on interstate freeways, just a few hours from Chicago, anywhere in Wisconsin and the Twin Cities.

Make the most of your vacation time, and your vacation budget — without the hassles of airport travel. Come to Granite Peak, where you can spend your time on the slopes, instead of in airports!


It’s the Real Thing — Everything you expect from a mountain ski vacation

At Granite Peak, we have 74 runs, a 700’ vertical, new lifts and Mid-America’s longest high-speed chairlift. We offer night skiing so you can hit the slopes when you want. We make snow on every slope and groom it to perfection every day from mid-November through April. For the cost of one short trip out west, you can take an entire winter’s worth of vacations at Granite Peak!

Granite Peak offers something for everyone:

  • Spacious, gentle beginner slopes and long tree-lined cruisers
  • 7 tree skiing glades and exciting mogul runs
  • 3 terrain parks with hits, jumps and rails
Visit our base area chalet for shopping and dining. Venture a few minutes out and experience the vast array dining, lodging and entertainment options of Wausau — an authentic ski town.

Kids Ski FREE — Every day!

When you buy a Family Combo Lift Ticket, an adult and child ski for the price of an adult lift ticket. That means kids ski free every day at Granite Peak — and you’ve saved enough for a lesson or pizza for the whole family.

Lift and Lodging Half-Price

That’s right—Half Price! Stay and ski 3 or more days at Granite Peak and your lift and lodging are half-price from the third day on. For your convenience, you can order lift and lodging packages online at www.skigranitepeak.com.

Granite Peak is the ALL NEW ski area.

We’ve taken Granite Peak to new heights with continuous improvements for the past eight years. We’ve added 60 runs, 7 tree-skiing glades and 3 terrain parks and 500 guns for 100% snowmaking coverage. We installed Mid-America’s longest High-Speed chairlift, 6 other chairlifts and a SunKid Wonder Carpet. And we’ve begun a tradition of festivals, entertainment and special events throughout the season - visit www.skigranitepeak.com for a complete calendar.
