Echo Ridge Experiences "Sweet Snow"
Echo Ridge Nordic Ski Area seems to be in the right place. Blessed with cold, dry powder, Echo Ridge continues to provide a great cross-country skiing experience.

The Echo Ridge Nordic Area has 20 miles of groomed ski trails and is located on the Chelan Ranger District (about a 30-minute drive from the town of Chelan). Echo Ridge accommodates both classic and skate skiers. Skiers 18 and over pay a fee of $5 per day and skiers 18 and under ski free. Season passes are available for $40 at the Chelan Ranger District.

Echo Ridge Nordic Ski Area is located between the towns of Chelan and Manson, high in the hills above Lake Chelan. The scenic ridge-top location provides 20 miles of rolling groomed cross-country ski trails, and breath taking views of Lake Chelan's fjord like valley and the Stewart Range. Echo Ridge has a variety of trails, offering choices for all skill levels from beginners to advanced skiers. Backcountry skiers and skate skiers can enjoy a seven-mile (11 Km) flat packed loop that offers a remote, backcountry like skiing experience. There is even a groomed trail that skiers are welcome to take their four-legged friends on, a rarity in the world of groomed cross-country ski areas.
