The 39 total runs are broken out as follows: 15 green, 4 blue, 11 black diamond and 4 double-black diamond. Four of the expert runs parallel the chairlifts. Beginners and intermediates should look to the eastern side of Blue Mountain to find some easy trails. Or, go closer to the lodge for a dedicated beginner area. The snow tubing area is also located near a lodge: Valley Lodge.

The five terrain parks include: Sidewinder Park, Lower Sidewinder, Terrain Run, Central Park and Come Around Park.

Blue Mountain Ski Area has two lodges, outdoor grilling and eating areas, and a great ski and snowboard school. The ski area has gorgeous views of the Pocono Mountains and offers year-round activities.

During the summer, the area attracts athletes of all types, especially mountain bikers. It’s also a place where you can catch athletes participating in the Spartan Race, with its signature obstacle courses designed to test participants’ determination and strength. You can also listen to a free concert or do a nighttime climb or zipline when it’s warm outside.
