First time at Giants Ridge?
Four things worth knowing before you set off.
Where to park
One base car park, free, and a second overflow lot signed on busy weekends. Everything is walkable from either.
What to buy first
A lift ticket or trail pass online before you leave. It is cheaper than the window and faster on arrival.
What to rent
Rentals are at the base lodge. Book them with your ticket and they are waiting when you arrive.
Where to start
The beginner area has its own carpet lift and its own space, well clear of through-traffic.

About three and a half hours, via I-35 north to Duluth then US-53 and MN-135. From Duluth it is an hour and fifteen.
Yes. Winter brings alpine and Nordic skiing, tubing, snowshoeing and fat biking. The warm season brings two championship golf courses, lift-served mountain biking, disc golf, hiking and the climbing wall. The Pool & Sauna Haus and Burnt Onion are open every day of the year.
Villas and chalets on property, plus partner hotels in Biwabik and Aurora five to fifteen minutes away. On-property lodging includes Pool & Sauna Haus access.
No, but online is cheaper than the window and it guarantees a slot on peak weekends.
Tubing, snowshoeing and the Pool & Sauna Haus in winter; disc golf, hiking, the climbing wall and the scenic chairlift in the warm season. Both restaurants are open to the public year round.
Dogs are welcome on the property and on marked hiking trails, but not on ski runs, Nordic trails or in the lodges.
