Ski New York - Wood Ski Trail Maps
No state has more ski areas than New York. The Adirondacks hold Olympic history and the biggest vertical in the East, the Catskills put real mountains within reach of the city, and the lake effect belt off Erie and Ontario buries western New York in snow every winter. Add the community hills of the Finger Lakes and Central New York and you have a ski culture with more range than anywhere else in the country. Mountaincut renders each New York ski area in laser cut, layered birch and walnut, handcrafted to order in Santa Fe and shipped within a few days. Below you will find wood ski trail maps for twenty one New York ski areas, grouped by region.
If you want all of New York ski areas on one wall, the Ski New York statewide wood map gathers the state's ski areas onto a single wood panel, with custom engraving so you can personalize it for the skier in your life. It is the centerpiece of the collection.
The Adirondacks and the North Country
New York's high peaks country is anchored by Whiteface, the Olympic mountain above Lake Placid and home to the greatest vertical drop in the East, and Gore Mountain in North Creek, its sprawling sister peak. Farther out, Titus Mountain near Malone and McCauley Mountain in Old Forge are North Country institutions, while West Mountain looks down on Glens Falls at the range's southern edge. Hickory Ski Center in Warrensburg remains one of the most storied small hills in the Adirondacks, a favorite among skiers who love its throwback character.
The Catskills
Within a few hours of New York City, the Catskills deliver serious terrain. Hunter Mountain and Windham face each other across the northern Catskills, Belleayre rises above Highmount in the heart of the Catskill Park, and Plattekill in Roxbury has earned a devoted following as the independent hill that skiers guard like a secret.
Central New York and the Finger Lakes
The middle of the state is where generations of New Yorkers learned to ski. Greek Peak outside Cortland is the largest ski area in Central New York, with Labrador Mountain in Truxton and Song Mountain in Tully just down the road. Woods Valley serves the Mohawk Valley, while in the Finger Lakes Bristol Mountain near Canandaigua claims the highest vertical between the Adirondacks and the Rockies, and Swain anchors the Southern Tier.
Western New York and the Lake Effect Belt
South of Buffalo, the snow comes off Lake Erie by the foot. Holiday Valley in Ellicottville is the region's flagship, sharing the valley with Holimont, one of the largest private ski clubs in the country. Kissing Bridge in Glenwood sits squarely in the snow belt, and Cockaigne in Cherry Creek carries a long and beloved history in Chautauqua County.
The Taconics
On the eastern edge of the state, Catamount straddles the New York and Massachusetts border, a rare mountain where you can ski across a state line without leaving the trail.
