Snowbasin Unveils 2024 Summer Offerings

It's time to come back to your favorite mountain.

Snowbasin Resort is ushering in a new season with the announcement of its 2024 summer offerings. Guests will be welcomed back to the mountain beginning Saturday, June 15, to enjoy the resort’s vast lineup of weekend activities, including the return of Blues & Brews, an expanded SnowWiesn Oktoberfest, gondola-assisted biking and hiking and themed dining.  

“After experiencing another ski season with over 400 inches, it’s hard to believe that summer is upon us. The time to welcome back our pass holders and guests is near for what is sure to be another extraordinary summer on the mountain.”

- Davy Ratchford, General Manager of Snowbasin Resort

Snowbasin’s public summer services and offerings include: 

Gondola Access: Needles Gondola will run on Saturdays and Sundays from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. from June 15 to October 6 for guests to enjoy sightseeing experiences or lift-served hiking and biking trails.

Mountain Biking & Hiking Trails: Snowbasin provides guests access to over 20 trails spanning 26 miles that can be accessed by foot, bike, or gondola. With continued trail enhancements, bikers and hikers can explore the 3,000 acres spanning Snowbasin. Due to high snowfall again this past winter, upper-mountain trails may be delayed.
