Ski season is approaching, and New Mexico is one of the best places to hit the slopes. Those looking for thrills and chills on the ski slopes should look to the Taos, New Mexico area. Taos has wonderful skiing options and lodging accommodations, like the many available Abode vacation homes and condos for rent in Taos and Taos Ski Valley. Before packing your skis and winter gear, glance at some of the best things about ski season in Taos, New Mexico. See you on the slopes!
Taos Ski Valley
The area has several great, smaller ski resorts. Our largest and most iconic is Taos Ski Valley. It is most inspiring for serious skiers and boarders, but they have a world-renowned ski school to teach beginners, and coach intermediates into experts and a few nice long ‘easy’ runs to test your mettle as you improve your skills before you’re ready to hike and shred St Bernard or take Lift 12 up to the Kachina basin. The Taos Ski Valley has it all.
Whether seasoned in skiing or snowboarding or new to the hobby, there is something for everyone. For instance, newcomers can sign up for ski lessons that cater to people fresh to the sport, adults, and children. Taos Ski Valley also offers childcare services so you can ski without guilt. In addition, there are rentals for adults and children, as well as repair and tuning.
