The Red River Ski & Summer Area is a family owned and operated ski and summer recreation resort located in northern New Mexico. The location is heaven on earth for outdoor recreation.
Red River is located in the Red River Valley in the Northern New Mexico range of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains. Red River is north of Taos and Santa Fe. Base Camp and town are at 8750′ elevation.
Red River is a welcoming ski town! It’s steeped in history, the attitude is laid back, people are friendly and, best of all, Red River Ski & Summer Area’s chairlifts are a short walk from Main Street.
State-of-the-art snowmaking and grooming make Red River Ski & Summer Area one of the best places to ski in the Southwest. It’s also one of the best places to learn to ski or snowboard. Under the tutelage of its skilled instructors, a neophyte can progress from beginner to solid intermediate – or even advanced – in record time!
Red River is a wonderful place to call “home” because it has a true sense of community and neighborly spirit. Our population during the off-season is 477 and can grow up to thousands during our busy times such as ski season and the summer months. We are located in northern New Mexico’s beautiful Sangre de Christo Mountains, close to many things, but far enough away from the chaos of a big city. Red River offers a relaxed pace of life but an abundance of outdoor things to do such as winter sports, fishing, and the activities in town.
