Activities
Visiting Great Basin in the winter offers a unique selection of activities for those who are looking to see the park in a new light and season. The Wheeler Peak Scenic Drive becomes a clear pathway for cross-country skiers and snowshoers. The Lehman Caves Tours are available year-round and are a favorite for those looking to escape the snow and explore what lies beneath the surface of the park. Trails and roads are not maintained or groomed. However, they are marked by orange flags so that snowshoers and skiers can easily follow the maze of trails around the park even when they are covered by snow. For up-to-date information on snow conditions, call (775) 234-7510.
