Cross Country Skiing

If you’ve ever wanted to try cross country skiing, Ohiopyle is a great place to start with several scenic options only minutes from Ohiopyle Vacation Rentals.

Laurel Ridge State Park

(888) 727-2757 | 1117 Jim Mountain Rd, Rockwood, PA 15557

The 13,625-acre Laurel Ridge State Park stretches across 4 counties along Laurel Mountain from Youghiogheny River at Ohiopyle to the Conemaugh Gorge near Johnstown. Laurel Ridge is a great option for beginners since they offer snowshoe rentals. Be sure to check their Facebook page for daily weather condition updates. 

Ohiopyle State Park

(724) 329-8591 | 124 Main St, Ohiopyle, PA 15470 

There are 33.9 miles of trails recommended for cross-country skiing in the State Park, and if we get a deep snowfall, the Great Allegheny Passage is another option for a flat, easy jaunt. There are no gear rentals here, so visitors must bring their own equipment. Also be sure to check difficulty ratings for a trail that is right for you before setting out. Sugarloaf Mountain is a great option for adventurers who want more downhill action. These trails begin at a higher elevation than the GAP trail and often have snow when the state park does not. 

Tubing

Snow tubing is a fun option for the whole family! Bump and bounce your way down the snowy mountain and try night tubing for some extra magic under the stars! 

White Water Adventurers offers snow tube rentals for anyone who wants to explore the Sugarloaf sledding area. 

Seven Springs, Wisp, and Hidden Valley all have designated snow tubing areas.
