Skip the slopes.
Skiing and snowboarding are typically the headlining activities in mountain towns. But for travelers who don’t partake in either of those winter sports, the mountains offer plenty of sideshows and supporting acts to keep you entertained. These six well-rounded mountain communities are proven winter wonderlands, offering plenty to do beyond the slopes.
2. Jackson County, North Carolina Mountain towns often excel in the quirky department. Jackson County, home to The American Museum of the House Cat, is no exception. A museum dedicated to cats isn’t the only offbeat attraction Jackson County has to offer; there’s also the annual Outhouse Races every winter , where teams of three push homemade outhouses secured to a set of skis down a racetrack.
But aside from skiing, Park City boasts a hip dining scene, starting with breakfast at Five5eeds, where Instagram-worthy hot cakes are topped with berries, edible flowers and lemon-infused mascarpone, and finishing with a cozy dinner at Firewood, where seasonal food is cooked by woodfire. By day, tourists can chase their own Olympic dreams at Utah Olympic Park, bombing down the lower third of the bobsled tracks that were used in the 2002 Winter Olympics, a ride often led by retired Olympians.
