Granlibakken

Granlibakken presents itself as a modest slopeside inn, its 200 feet of vertical suitable for those learning the craft or seeking a gentle glide. It is known primarily for its more placid offerings, a place where the clamor of larger resorts is seldom heard.

For the touring scholar of snow, Granlibakken serves well as a tranquil interlude. Its proximity to Homewood, a mere five miles hence, or the more expansive terrains of Palisades Tahoe, makes for an easy transition. The drives themselves require little of the adventurer, being short excursions rather than grand journeys.

This independent operation stands alone, untethered to the larger pass networks. One ought not arrive expecting grand vertical or vast expanses; its charm lies in its unassuming nature and its convenient setting.
