Many people flock to Big Mountain in winter to enjoy ski and snowboard on the impressive slopes. However, this popular destination offers plenty of recreational opportunities at every time of year, including the summer. If you’re planning a trip to Big Mountain this season, try one of these four activities when you’re not relaxing in your scenic glamping site or vacation rental. 

4 Things to Do at Big Mountain in Summer 

1. Zip Line Tour 

Soar high above the slopes and trees with a zip line tour. Spanning over a mile, the tour has six lines stretching nearly 2,000 feet across and 300 feet above the ground. Guides ensure guests have an exhilarating and safe time. 

2. Hiking & Biking

Whitefish is renowned for its natural beauty year-round. Get out and explore the area with a hike or bike up the mountain. Whitefish Trail, Swift Creek Trailhead, Beaver Lakes Trailhead, and Danny On Trail are just a few of the routes you can take. 

3. Aerial Adventure Park 

The Aerial Adventure Park, known as “an obstacle course in the trees,” features five courses of various ability levels, each featuring different challenges to overcome to get from one spot to the next. You’ll cross cable bridges, climb ladders, swing on a trapeze, and more. It’s an excellent option for everyone from individuals and families to corporate groups. 

4. Tubing & Sliding

Tubing isn’t just for snow. You can also slide down the slopes in a tube this summer. Ride the Big Easy Carpet to the top and slide to the bottom of the hill in a 300-foot descent that’s fun for the whole family. You can also slide down the Alpine Slide down dips, under bridges, and around banked turns, controlling your speed with a hand brake.
