Mammoth Mountain
Mammoth Mountain is ski-heaven in winter, but it's also a great spot during the summer months. Kids can zoom down zip lines, bike on mountain trails, bounce, and ride to the top of Mammoth Mountain on the scenic gondola. There's also cafes and restaurants, and ice cream.
Scenic Gondola - Ride the gondola to the top of Mammoth Mountain (11, 053 ft. high). There are picnic tables and glorious views of the Minaret mountain range to the west and the White Mountains to the east. Cafe and market are also available for lunch and snacks.
Check out the Eleven53 Interpretive Center, displays about the geology (and seismic activity) of Mammoth Mountain, and 360 views of the ancient volcanoes, rivers, mountains and valleys.
Tip: Even in summer, there's sometimes still snow on Mammoth Mountain. Our kids had a snowball fight on the mountain top in July.
Mini Golf- Also at the main lodge, 9 hole course, fun for everyone in the family.
