Welcome To The Real Unreal

Unreal. There is no better way to describe Mammoth Lakes, California.

A place so majestic that breathtaking views surround you in every direction. Where otherworldly landscapes of alpine lakes, volcanic craters and tufa towers exist side by side. And adventure never takes a season off, whether hiking rugged mountain terrain or skiing mind-blowing amounts of powder at 11,053 feet. A wonder of nature, and a wonder why you’d want to be anywhere else. It’s all so unreal, we’re just happy it’s also very real.

Nothing Has Changed For Millennia. And We Intend To Keep It That Way.

Mammoth Lakes, California is nature at its most awe-inspiring and extraordinary. Many of our most unique features like Devils Postpile or Mammoth Mountain itself were formed more than 55,000 years ago, which means we’ve been keeping it unreal for a very long time. It also means we take a lot of pride in protecting this landscape.

When you visit, you connect with the land almost instantly. It becomes a part of you. So we ask this: become a part of it. Help us care for this unreal environment by adventuring responsibly and protecting our incredible destination for generations to come. Explore, have fun, and surround yourself with the incomprehensible. Be a responsible steward of Mammoth Lakes on your next visit. And most importantly, #KeepMammothUnreal.
