Winter is a time of fantastic ski vacations, exhilarating trips to snowboarding parks, and delicious sips of hot chocolate in between ski runs… unless you’re not a fan of powdery, white snow. Skisnowboard.com has come up with the 6 best resorts for non-skiers:

  • Lake Placid, New York: The home of the 1932 and 1980 Winter Olympics offers something for everyone.
  • Aspen, Colorado: Along with some of the best skiing in the country, this famous winter destination offers opera, incredible shopping, five star restaurants, and winter-themed activities like sleigh rides and sledding for the non-skiers in your group.
  • Jackson Hole, Wyoming: Take a sleigh ride through elk country, or visit nearby Yellowstone National Park. While winter sport lovers will enjoy the slopes, others will enjoy nature and the resort’s first class spas.
  • Heavenly, South Lake Tahoe, California/Nevada: A picturesque lakeside town, Heavenly offers casinos, clubs and gourmet restaurants in addition to some truly wonderful skiing.
  • Santa Fe, New Mexico: Explore Native American pueblos, miles of trails, and luxury spas while your friends ski and snowboard.
  • Park City Mountain Resort, Utah: A restored mining town, Park City is famous for its 2002 Winter Olympic bobsled track, hot-air ballooning, gourmet dining, and truly diverse array of vacation options.
