Ranked #3 Resort in the West by Ski Magazine readers, Whitefish delivers world-class skiing without crowds. Beyond the slopes, explore snowmobiling, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, ice fishing, or a peaceful winter hike. When you're ready to warm up, stroll through downtown Whitefish, filled with cozy cafes, galleries, and local shops. Don't miss the iconic Whitefish Winter Carnival, featuring parades, skijoring, and small-town charm at its best. 
 
Summer 
When the snow melts, Whitefish becomes an outdoor playground. Spend sunny days on Whitefish Lake or explore over 100 lakes and rivers within 100 miles, including legendary Flathead Lake -- the largest freshwater lake west of the Mississippi. At Whitefish Mountain Resort, summer brings mountain biking, hiking, zip-lining, ropes courses, alpine slides, and scenic gondola rides with panoramic Glacier National Park views. Glacier is just a 35-minute drive away, perfect for a day trip to the Going-to-the-Sun Road, Lake McDonald, or one of its 70+ hiking trails. For local flavor, explore the Whitefish Trail System (43 miles of hiking and biking), enjoy local breweries, distilleries, golf courses, and art galleries, and catch seasonal events like Huckleberry Days, farmers markets, rodeos, and the Under the Big Sky Music Festival.
