Ober Gatlinburg ski area, Great Smoky Mountains, Tennessee
|
| | Ober Gatlinburg doesn't have a lot of different runs to choose from but it's pretty ok based on the area. says Bob Turner.
Ober Gatlinburg has a rather modest collection of trails and quite few ski lifts. With a 600 foot vertical drop it's not the tallest hill there is, but all the other tremendous properties of Ober Gatlinburg make up for it. Having a skiing area of 38 acres, it's more of a small style ski area. This ski area has a much lower than average ratio of tough ski runs and a much higher than average |

share of blue and green trails. The yearly snowfall is less than average at Ober Gatlinburg. If you'll be staying in a hotel, you're in luck, rooms are offered in the vicinity of the bottom area, but you'd better book previous to going given that these rooms fill

When this segment of Tennessee is covered in beautiful snow; it is so wonderful for skiing and snowboarding. The Great Smoky Mountains covered in beautiful snow is a one hundred percent skiing and snowboarding paradise. The 3 feet of great snow that falls here every winter is pretty acceptable for a ski mountain like this one. Ober Gatlinburg has the | |

largest vertical drop for 33 miles. Some people prefer skiing and some snowboarding, either way, there are a lot of perfect ski resorts for that in close proximity. The 4 good ski lifts here are enjoyable to hitch a ride with. The best piece of information on
this resort is unsurprisingly the trailmap of Ober Gatlinburg on this net page. The highlands of the Great Smoky Mountains make for a brilliant panorama. This ski area is a small place managed by kind folks. The snowboarding and the skiing in Tennessee is a great
thing to do every day of the winter. This is a popular ski hill for skiers from Sevierville. This is a family friendly ski area with a lot of intermediate or beginner runs. Getting your skiing muscles activated and getting out of the house for a while is better than anything.
