Beginners Welcome!

New to the snow scene? Welcome! Granby Ranch is the perfect place to try downhill skiing and snowboarding, Nordic skiing and snowshoeing. Ski and ride school is incredibly approachable and affordable. Thoughtfully carved out trails and forgiving terrain keep the experience light and fun. Bring the whole family—non-skiers love to kick back at the base by the fire pit and cheer on loved ones as they ski down the mountain. All trails funnel back to the base, so you never miss a beat.
