Nanshan Ski Resort in Beijing

Nanshan Ski Resort in Beijing

Nanshan Ski Resort in Beijing is located in Miyun County, 62 kilometers from Wanghe Bridge, accessible directly via the Beijing-Chengde Expressway. It is a rare winter resort in Beijing and North China that integrates dynamic leisure sports such as skiing, tobogganing, and ice climbing. The resort has a daily capacity of 6,000 visitors and offers over 2,000 parking spaces. It is situated on the northern slope of Nanshan in Miyun County, featuring excellent snow quality, stunning scenery, and a pleasant climate.

After nine years of continuous development and improvement, the resort now has 21 ski runs, including advanced, intermediate, beginner, instructional, and fun slopes; it also boasts China's renowned off-piste park and snowboard park (Nanshan Malo Park). Moreover, it was the first in China to open intermediate and advanced moguls and wave runs. Among them, the "Off-Piste Park," a beautiful forest skiing area, has become a specialized training ground for non-mainstream skiing enthusiasts in Beijing to practice in the woods.

Nanshan Ski Resort has introduced high-tech artificial snow-making systems from Austria and Italy, along with 18 snow-making machines and 3 German snow-grooming vehicles. It is equipped with two four-seat chairlifts, one two-seat chairlift, 13 surface tows of various sizes, and three automatic moving carpets ("Magic Carpets"), with a total hourly transportation capacity of 11,950 people. This enables groups, families, and children who are new to skiing to enjoy the fun of the sport more safely and conveniently. The resort also has three large rental centers for ski equipment — one for groups, one for individual visitors, and one VIP center — covering a total area of 7,200 square meters, with approximately 6,000 sets of imported ski gear available for rent.

For snow play and entertainment, the resort has introduced the German Wiegand Dry Ski Slope (1,318 meters long) and Canadian Snow Tubes, suitable for all ages. It also features a large outdoor ice-climbing wall, 30 meters high and 15 meters wide, with one beginner and one intermediate route, multiple sets of internationally standard ice-climbing equipment, and professional instructors providing on-site guidance and safety protection — offering another experience and training venue for hiking and skiing enthusiasts.

Nanshan Ski Resort has been committed to promoting and popularizing skiing. It currently has over 150 experienced ski instructors and has independently developed teaching materials such as the "Mass Skiing Tutorial" (for alpine skiing) and the "Board Pig Winter Camp – Snowboard Skiing Secrets." It is also currently filming the "Nanshan Leisure Skiing Tutorial (Alpine Skiing)."

The resort features a variety of dining options with distinctive styles both on the mountain and at the base, such as the Tarras Western Bar, Nanshan Canteen, Dahuatang Northeastern Restaurant, an open-air snack plaza, and the Lavender Tea House, offering a rich selection of Chinese and Western cuisines. After skiing, visitors can enjoy a cozy, nostalgic, warm, and romantic atmosphere at the Alpine Coffee Corner with European mountain-style ambiance — sipping a rich cup of coffee on the sunlit terrace while sitting on a beach chair.

Nestled by Lanbo Lake are three charming wooden cabin villas, serving as a romantic accommodation option within the resort. The 24 double rooms are all equipped with warm European-style fireplaces. Additionally, two hillside villas — the Norwegian Villas — come with fireplace living rooms, dormer windows, terraces, kitchens, providing a poetic retreat for couples or families on a skiing holiday.

Nanshan Ski Club is China’s first VIP ski club with a dedicated independent clubhouse, offering membership services. From the club’s floor-to-ceiling glass coffee lounge, you can overlook the snowy mountains and enjoy a unique winter leisure experience.
