The Lodge and Spa at Three Forks Ranch Introduces Exclusive, One-Of-A-Kind Getaway Packages
From skiing with Olympians and fly fishing with sports icons to photography and yoga, the Exclusive Events offered all year long at Three Forks Ranch allow visitors to build their own luxury adventure while learning new skills, honing existing expertise or simply enjoying much-needed balance and relaxation.

All getaways and their associated activities take place at Three Forks Ranch, allowing guests to take advantage of as many activities as they wish on the expansive property without the burden of travel time to outside venues or the unknowns of third-party operations. Upon the conclusion of their stay, guests receive custom photo albums featuring images of their adventure – perfect for instant sharing, be it with friends and family once arriving home or digitally through one's social channels.

"Our Exclusive Events were created so that guests can experience the best of Three Forks Ranch while fulfilling personal passions and life-long dreams," said Allison Pratt, Director of Sales and Marketing, The Lodge and Spa at Three Forks Ranch. "There is so much to do here, but these customized getaways concentrate some of our most popular amenities into a few incredible days to help guests make the most of every visit."

WINTER/SPRING

During ski season, Three Forks Mountain is blanketed by an average annual snowfall of 350-550 inches and boasts roughly 1,100 vertical feet. The two peaks lead to natural cruisers, bumps, steeps, meadows and tree lines; but, what truly sets Three Forks Ranch apart from other resorts is the fact that there are no lift lines. In fact, guests are personally transported by high-powered snowcats that get you up the mountain in style. Three Forks Mountain has been transformed with blue, green and black runs specifically for guests and is limited to 30 people at any given time, ensuring that those indulging their winter passions feel as if they have the mountain to themselves.

In addition to downhill skiing, guests can also indulge in other cold-weather activities, including cross-country skiing, snowboarding, snowmobiling, horse-drawn sleigh rides, tubing and sledding down Three Forks' "Thrill Hill," ice fishing and more.

Exclusive Events available in Winter and Spring include:
