About Eldora Mountain

Just 21 miles west of Boulder, Colorado, Eldora Mountain is the ultimate local’s mountain, allowing front-range skiers to bypass the notorious I-70 traffic. Known for its laid-back vibe and rootsy Colorado character, Eldora is a powerhouse for regional skiing, boasting excellent snowmaking and high-elevation terrain that holds snow remarkably well throughout the season.

Terrain and Trails

Eldora offers 680 acres of skiable terrain and a 1,400-foot vertical drop, reaching a top elevation of 10,600 feet. The mountain features 68 trails serviced by 10 lifts, including the Alpenglow high-speed six-person chair. The terrain is split into 20% beginner, 50% intermediate, and 30% advanced/expert. Beginners flock to the dedicated Little Hawk mountain, while experts tackle the steep, bumped-up pitches of the Corona Bowl. Eldora also features a world-class Nordic center.
