Excellent ski hill to bring the kids to, huge number of lifts that serve all abilities which is important when you have kids because they're all at different ages all the time. There's always a perfect lift for everyone in the family. says Michael.

Afton Alps has so many runs, you'll never get bored. Great skiing for the whole family, mainly easy runs but there are a few hard ones too. I recommend this ski area to anyone who likes to ski. says Nancy.

    get you up the mountain effectively. This ski resort obtains lighter than average snow every winter. This ski hill has 250 acres of skiable area, and it's all in great shape. With a 350 foot drop it's not the highest hill there is, but Afton Alps compensates for
it by other means. This ski resort has a much lower than average fraction of tough trails and a much higher than average proportion of green and blue trails.
