Learn to ski, ride at Diamond Peak
Learn to ski and ride for only $29. In an effort to encourage everyone to get better at skiing or snowboarding, Diamond Peak created another week dedicated to teaching you a new sport or improving your skills.
Diamond Peak held one Learn to Ski & Ride Week back in January, and it was so successful they decided to add another one March 9-13.
The $29 Learn to Ski & Ride Week is available for ages 7 and up and includes a beginner lift ticket, group lesson and rental. Lessons start at 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. Repeat as many times as you want during the week.
Save more than $50 during this week.
A $59 Learn to Ski & Ride package is available for ages 4-7. This package includes a two-hour group lesson, rentals and a lift ticket with access to the Schoolhouse and Lodgepole lifts.
Reservations are not required and there will be plenty of room for everyone.
Diamond Peak is located on 1210 Ski Way in Incline Village. For more information and current conditions, call 775-832-1177.
