When carrying out a search online for what ski resorts in PA to stay at you will be astounded at just how many you have to choose from. What you will notice that these resorts are spread out over a three different areas of the State of Pennsylvania.


There are those resorts which are located in the eastern part of the County in the Pocono Mountains, there are some to the West in the Alleghenies Mountains. Then there are those to the south located in mountain region close to the towns of Harrisburg and Gettysburg.


The advantage that the resorts in the Poconos have over those situated in the other areas is that they are close to the states much larger cities including New York City and Philadelphia. Whilst those towards the west are situated closer to Pittsburgh, Ohio and West Virginia. Whilst the final resorts that are located in the southern part of the state are ideally situated for those coming from Washington DC or Baltimore.


Below we are now going to take a look at some of the resorts that are proving popular not only with US citizens but with others who enjoy skiing from around the world.


Bear Creek Mountain Resort - This is situated in the south eastern part of the State of Pennsylvania and getting to it from New York City (95 miles away) and Philadelphia (65 miles) away is relatively easy. The resort offers a number of different ski slopes to suit a wide range of skiing abilities but the longest and most challenging of them all measures a total of 1.5 miles. Yet you don't need to just spend time skiing at this resort if you want you could give snowboarding or snow tubing a try as well.


Camelback Ski Area - Located in the north eastern part of Pennsylvania in the very heart of the Pocono Mountains. Again as with Bear Creek this resort offers not just the facilities for skiing, but also for snowboarding and snow tubing as well. It is much closer to New York City which is just 80 miles away, but slightly further away from Philadelphia which is 90 miles away.


Shawnee Mountain Ski Resort - This one is actually situated some distance from both New York City and Philadelphia but is still one to be found in the Pocono Mountains. However, compared to some of the other resorts this is relatively easy to get to as it is situated close to the highway known as I-80 (Interstate 80). As with all the resorts mentioned in this article Shawnee Mountain has skiing facilities available to suit a wide range of skiing abilities.


We have mentioned just a few of the ski resorts in PA that are worth considering for your next skiing vacation, but as well as these there are resorts such as Tanglwood, Ski Sawmill and Seven Springs Mountain to consider as well. A quick search online and you will be able to discover what facilities which each one has to offer and which one would be best suited to the level of skiing experience that you have.
