Champion rewards residents and newcomers with a serene mountain lifestyle and easy access to big‑ticket outdoor adventures. Tucked in the Laurel Highlands of Fayette County, the community hums year‑round: winter brings turns at Seven Springs Mountain Resort and Hidden Valley Resort, while summer opens miles of forested trails, cool streams, and scenic overlooks.
Weekends often start on the slopes at the lively Seven Springs Mountain Resort, a four‑season hub for skiing, mountain biking, festivals, and live music, or at family‑friendly Hidden Valley Resort with its approachable terrain and golf. Just minutes away, Laurel Hill State Park offers sandy swimming at Laurel Hill Lake, paddlecraft rentals, and quiet, old‑growth hemlock groves, while the rushing waters and iconic falls of Ohiopyle State Park entice hikers, rafters, and cyclists along the Great Allegheny Passage. Architecture and art lovers will find an inspiring day trip at the Frank Lloyd Wright masterpiece Fallingwater, and boutiques, cafés, and seasonal events await in the quaint borough of Ligonier.
Families appreciate access to the Connellsville Area School District, which supports academics, arts, and athletics across a large, rural footprint. Housing ranges from ski‑adjacent condos and woodland cabins to private acreage with mountain views—ideal for second homes or full‑time living.
