Feel the crunch of fresh snow under your boots, the glow of a firepit warming your cheeks, and the melodies of festive tunes drifting through the crisp mountain air. This December 24th and 25th, Nakiska Ski Area is the place to be, where Santa himself will be hitting the slopes from 10:30am to 2:00pm, spreading holiday cheer in the heart of the Rockies.
A Snowy Wonderland
Picture this: snow-dusted trees, the distant laughter of the slopes, and the majestic Rockies providing the perfect backdrop for your holiday escape. Santa’s arrival takes the Christmas vibes to a whole new level! Snap a photo as he waves from the chairlift or share a laugh when he pauses for a chat—Santa’s reflective goggles and jolly wave make for a photo-op you’ll treasure forever.
Shreddin’ with the Big Guy

Festive Activities
Beyond the slopes, Nakiska offers plenty of festive activities to keep the entire family entertained. Warm up with a steaming cup of hot cocoa at the cozy base area, where the fire pit creates a gathering place for stories.
