Heavenly North Info
Heavenly North is located in Stateline, NV at the top of the Kingsbury Grade (State Route 207). This area is at 7000+ feet elevation and is made up of single family homes, condominiums and timeshares. This area seems to move at a slower pace and only 5 miles from the South Lake Tahoe Casino Strip if you want more action. We believe the best skiing/boarding (winter) and hiking/mountain biking (summer) can be found in the Heavenly North area of South Lake Tahoe.
Heavenly Mountain Resort Info Link
Heavenly Mountain Resort has two lifts in the Heavenly North area that provide all-mountain access with all the amenities you will need to enjoy your time on and off the mountain.
With its own lodge, the Boulder Lift is great for beginners. The Boulder Lift has Ski School, equipment rentals, a beginner lift and the Magic Carpet to assist those with little experience on skis or a board. Also with its own lodge and equipment rentals, the Stagecoach Lift area has a high speed quad for experienced skiers/boarders. Because of the short lift lines and amenities, the Heavenly North area is where Nevada locals choose to access Heavenly Mountain.
