Where Kids Ski Free in Virginia
Skiing can be very expensive- especially once you factor in taking the entire family. For those who enjoy spending time in the snow there are several resorts in Virginia with good skiing.
And of them is nice enough to be the place where kids ski FREE in Virginia.
The Wintergreen Resort offers a Snow License to 5th and 6th graders who are residents of Virginia, Maryland, Washington DC, North Carolina and West Virginia, that are good for free lift tickets.
Here’s how it works:
- Program is open to all currently enrolled 5th and 6th graders in VA, MD, DC, NC and WV
- Register to get your snowLICENSE® using the form, then purchase your Snow License online with $15 administrative fee. Not available at lift ticket windows.
