About
High-Elevation Adventure in the Elkhorn Mountains
Anthony Lakes Mountain Resort offers year-round mountain recreation in the Elkhorn Mountains, known for its high-elevation skiing, mountain biking trails, hiking trails, and access to alpine lakes. In winter, visitors come for powder and Nordic trails, while summer brings hiking, mountain biking, and scenic landscapes.
ACTIVITIES
Downhill Skiing
Sitting at 7,100 feet above sea level, Anthony Lakes has the highest base elevation of any ski area in Oregon. Anthony Lakes boasts some of the best snow around and routes for beginners, interemediate, and expert skiers.
Cross-Country Skiing and Snowshoeing
With 30 kilometers of groomed and track-set trails, the Anthony Lakes Nordic area is cross-country skier’s wonderland. The Nordic Outpost operates out of the Elkhorn Crest Trailhead parking lot, about ¼ mile before the main lodge parking lot. Rentals, trail passes, maps, and expert information are available at the outpost.
Mountain Biking
Over 8 miles of single track trails follow the Nordic ski corridors and offer a little of everything; from 1000 ft. climbs to the top of the mountain, to rugged, rocky descents. With multiple high lakes and beautiful granite peaks, these trails are scenic and fun!
