Podbreziny Ski Resort

Big mountain views over Lake Superior, fresh North Shore air, and four peaks to explore — Lutsen Mountains is your easy-to-love summer escape. Ride the Summit Express Gondola up Moose Mountain for sweeping vistas of the Sawtooth Mountains and Lake Superior’s dramatic shoreline, then step right into a world of trails, overlooks, and relaxed mountaintop moments.

When the snow melts, Lutsen trades skis for sun-soaked adventure: hike scenic routes (including access to stretches of the Superior Hiking Trail), chase waterfalls in spring and early summer, and make the most of long days with paddling along Lake Superior’s pristine North Shore. And if your crew likes a little thrill, don’t miss the Alpine Slide—a classic, family-friendly ride that’s as fun taking it slow as it is letting it rip.
