Situated in southeastern Michigan, Mt. Brighton is a staple of Midwest skiing that has been introducing locals to winter sports since 1960. Originally built on a man-made hill, the resort was acquired by Vail Resorts and transformed into an Epic Pass destination. Despite its modest vertical drop of 250 feet, Mt. Brighton maximizes its 130 skiable acres with powerful snowmaking and excellent grooming, making it a convenient urban getaway just minutes from Ann Arbor and Detroit.
Mt. Brighton features 24 trails accessed by a network of 5 chairlifts and 7 surface lifts, ensuring quick laps and plenty of time on the snow. The layout is heavily focused on beginner and intermediate progression, with wide, gentle slopes that are perfect for ski school and families. Additionally, the resort boasts multiple terrain parks that are regularly reshaped, offering a variety of boxes, rails, and jumps designed to challenge freestyle riders of all ability levels.
