Reviews

Magic Mountain is a great place to go snowboarding. They have a magic carpet for beginners and it helped me overcome my fears. This mountain is great if your just getting into it and need a friendly environment to do it.

Very tiny resort, doesn't always get the most sbow but I have family that's goes here often and loves it. It's very fun to board or ski on with lots of friends and family cause you won't get lost and you can constantly see them all over the mountain with ease. They have pretty good food too honestly. Everytime I've been, it hasn't been too busy which is really nice and allows you to feel like you have a full mountain to yourself wit friends and family. Pretty good mountain considering how small it is and where it's located. I'd say it's best for beginners to intermediate but and advanced boarder or skiier can find some fun too if they have a good attitude.

Me and my uncle both snowboard and when I visit him we take a trip up to magic mountain for a day. The slopes are suitable for any level of skier or snowboarder. We both enjoy off piste runs and magic mountain doesnt disappoint.
