Ski or hike Mount Hood.
Mt. Hood Meadows offers the most expansive skiable terrain on Oregon’s tallest peak, draped across the wind-protected southern slopes of Mount Hood. Known for receiving over 400 inches of dry, reliable snowfall annually, the resort spans 2,150 acres of diverse terrain that caters to all skill levels, though intermediates and experts will find the most to explore. Eleven lifts unlock long, cruising descents, while the Cascade Express area delivers panoramic views across the Cascade Range. Beyond downhill skiing and snowboarding, the resort features a progressive terrain park with a 15-foot pipe, designated snowshoe trails, and convenient base lodges equipped with dining and gear rentals. It is a highly accessible, full-scale mountain playground just 67 miles east of Portland.
