Andes Tower Hills Ski Area

The Andes Tower Hills Ski Area is located smack dab in the middle of Minnesota’s farm country. The Anderson Brothers envisioned a ski area on Tower Hill and Andes Tower Hills was born. Andes Tower Hills offers affordable rates on skiing and snowboarding over their 16 downhill runs. Andes Tower Hills features four beginner runs, 4 intermediate runs, 7 most difficult and 1 experts only run. The Ski Area even features a terrain park. Minnesota’s Alexandria Lakes Area offers plenty of winter lodging for snow sports enthusiasts, and the ski area features hillside condominiums for rent to its visitors.

Andes would be ok for a first time skier
