The Sun Valley Nordic Center has been relocated to the new 58,000 square-foot Sun Valley Club in the backyard of the world famous Sun Valley Lodge. This stunning new facility features a restaurant, lounge, bar and locker rooms, along with equipment repair, rental and storage. Indoor virtual golf also adds to the list of extras. Cross country skiers now have all the amenities of America’s first year-round destination resort surrounding their Nordic ski experience, including two heated outdoor pools, ice skating, elegant dining, exclusive shopping and village ambiance to complement some of the best cross-country skiing in the Rocky Mountains.

Room to roam
Forty kilometers (about 25 miles) of groomed and marked trails begin at the Nordic Center. Gentle terrain at the trailhead progresses to challenging hills. Gliding over glistening meadows at an elevation of 6,000 feet is a unique experience for the cross country skier seeking a wide variety of classical, skate skiing and ski touring.
Sun Valley houses the largest Nordic ski school in the Sun Valley/Sawtooth National Recreation Area. The very latest teaching techniques are incorporated into all levels of instruction, clinics and private lessons. Grooming gives a faster glide and more fun in cross country skiing. Sun Valley's equipment runs daily around all the tracks setting and maintaining a prepared surface for classical and skate ski lanes.
