Belleayre Mountain Ski Center
Belleayre Mountain
A ski area run by New York State, with affordable tickets and a lookout at the summit. In summer, you can swim and boat at the lakeside beach at the base.
Belleayre Mountain is operated by the Olympic Regional Development Authority of New York State. It has about 50 trails and is one of the largest ski areas in the central Catskills. A newly built high-speed chairlift runs directly to the summit.
Outside ski season, Belleayre Beach, a man-made lake for swimming, paddling and picnics, and the mountain trails are open. In autumn, chairlift rides offer views of the fall foliage. The resort is about a 20-minute drive from Phoenicia.
