Downhill Skiing

Enjoy the Brainerd Lakes Ski Area, located only 8 miles from Cragun's! Ski Gull has a 290 foot vertical drop, 13 runs, 3 tow ropes, triple chair lift, snow making equipment, and is open mid December to mid March.  A great family slope that is safe and friendly for beginning skiers, with rental boots, poles, skiis and "Bunny Hill" instruction.  Also, snow channels have been built for snowboarding addicts. 

Ski Gull's Richochet Alley Snowtubing is a great place to plan a family activity, group adventure, or child's birthday party. Snowtubing requires no special skill or equipment, only warm clothes and a passion for thrills. Ski Gull provides the snow, tubes, lift with handle grips and lights for tubing at night. You supply the laughs, screams and endless fun!

Cragun's offers discounted ski tickets to guests at the Front Desk where you may inquire about Ski Gull operating hours and lift tickets.
