Wilmot Mountain Ski Resort

Overview

Since 1938, Wilmot Mountain has enchanted families as one of the Midwest’s premier Winter destinations for snowsport activities. Just a short drive away from Chicago and Milwaukee, they have made skiing, snowboarding, and tubing an easy, accessible, affordable and fun trip for the whole family.

With nearly 120 skiable acres, 23 trails, 7 lifts, 2 magic carpets and progression terrain parks with a double high speed rope tow, there is enough terrain to challenge experts to beginners, day or night. For those who are not up to skiing or snowboarding, there is always a fun day waiting just down the road at the tubing area with 22 lanes and 2 magic carpets to take you back to the top.

Having converted thousands of first-timers into lifelong skiers and riders, and now with the opportunity to take that passion to Vail Resorts’ iconic western mountains, Wilmot Mountain is truly the place where Epic begins.

No lodging on site, but within driving distance there are a variety of hotels, motels, and inns in Richmond, Antioch, and Pleasant Prairie.

Terrain

Whether you are cruising the greens or mastering the black diamonds, Wilmot Mountain has what you are looking for in a beginner or advanced run. For added variety, check out the newly renovated terrain parks! Grind the rails, hit the jumps, and do it over and over using our high speed tow rope. Our terrain parks supply the most progressive jumps, rails, and jib features, delighting passionate freestyle skiers and riders seeking an opportunity to push the envelope. Looking for even more excitement? Go make your way through the mogul field, encountering many different lines and challenges along the way.

Inside Scoop

Our Children's Ski and Snowboard School welcomes children ages 3-Teen with programs for all ability levels; each separated appropriately by skill and age group. Our dedicated Children's Learning Center offers group lessons, full day, and multi-week programs to suit your family's needs.

Snow Tubing has quickly become one of the fastest growing Winter activities and it is easy to see why. It's simple and fun! No need for a lesson, because all you have to do is grab a tube, have a seat, and let gravity be your friend. No need to bring along any equipment, because we provide the tube. Snow Tubing is great for school groups, work outings, friends, and family. Make sure you dress for the cold weather and high wind speeds since you will be racing down the hill watching snow fly by.
