About this adventure
Situated just 45 minutes west of Detroit in Livingston County, Mt. Brighton has introduced generations of Southeast Michigan families to downhill winter sports since 1960. As a Vail Resorts destination, the mountain features 25 groomed trails, 130 skiable acres, 100% snowmaking coverage, and two high-speed quad chairlifts across a 250-foot vertical drop. The resort's renowned Ski and Snowboard School offers specialized multi-week programs and single-day lessons for children as young as age 3. The dedicated beginner learning zone features gentle slopes serviced by a covered SunKid moving carpet lift. The spacious Ore Creek Mountain Grill base lodge provides heated family dining, stone fireplaces, and gear rental facilities.
