Alpine Slides

Get ready for a gravity-powered rush of pure mountain fun on the Alpine Slides at Whitefish Mountain Resort. Choose your track—the affectionately named "Forest" or "Meadow"—and cruise down from the scenic village to the Base Lodge on your own personal sled equipped with a manual hand brake so you can control your own speed. Perfect for solo thrill-seekers or families riding together, each ticket includes a scenic return trip to the top via Chair 6, making it easy to lap the excitement all afternoon. No prior experience is needed for this quintessential Montana summer activity, offering an accessible, wind-in-your-hair experience that will have you coming back to the starting gates again and again.
