Snowsports School
Our Snowsports school is now closed for the 2021/22 Season. We’ll see you again next season!
Peek’n Peak has been transforming guests into Winter Sports Enthusiasts for decades! Generations of skiers and snowboarders have grown up on the slopes of The Peak, including several professionals and Olympians. At our Snow Sports School, guests are guided along a learning program that celebrates fun & builds confidence through an easy five-step learning program.
After mastering the beginner area, you’ll graduate to the slopes. Peek’n Peak’s unique geography allows skiers and snowboarders to master their technique with less intimidating elevation and shorter runs that grant you the opportunity to ride a variety of slopes dozens of times.

build your confidence in our fun & forgiving beginner area
Our Beginner Area has been designed to build your confidence while you learn to slide on snow through five areas which focus on specific techniques of snowboarding and skiing. If you sign up for a lesson through our Snow Sports School, you will have a friendly and supportive instructor by your side the entire time.
Each element of the Beginner Area is carefully designed with groomed snow surfaces that are shaped into an ideal sliding surface. Our beginner hill, for example, has a slightly curve. As you approach the sides of the slope, the banked edges will help to slow you down, assisting you in making a turn and then guide you back towards the center of the hill.
Peek’n Kids
The perfect place for kids to ski & snowboard.
For more than 45 years, our Peek’n Kids Program has been developing skiers and snowboarders from an early age. Our professional instructors and caregivers cater to your kids both on and off the slopes so that you may experience all that our resort has to offer, knowing your kids are off on a fun, learning adventure!
Designed for skiers and riders of all skill levels, beginner to advanced, our instructors will take your child on a safe and fun journey that will bring them back smiling and ready for more.
By dividing groups up according to age, ability, and maturity level, our staff is paving the way for your child to have a terrific time sliding on snow with both experienced instructors and new skiing and riding friends!
