Things to Do

Skiing & Snowboarding

There's a reason the Okanagan powder is infamous in this province — there is simply no better feeling than carving fresh tracks through the lightest, driest, fluffiest snow that graces our slopes.

Where winter is more than a season, it's a sensation

Experience our expansive terrain by ski or board for a truly exciting winter adventure.

We count ourselves lucky to have SilverStar Mountain Resort just 30 minutes from downtown, and a variety of cat-skiing options for those craving fresh tracks and a little added adventure in the back country.

Resort Skiing/Snowboarding

Whether you’re seeking to test your mettle in steep powder-filled chutes or just like to cruise blues and greens right into après, SilverStar Mountain Resort has something for you. This world-class destination gives you over 1,300 hectares (3,282 acres), 130+ runs, and is only missing one thing — the crowds.

Cat Skiing/Snowboarding

Craving a little adventure outside the resort boundaries? Monashee Powder Snowcats and Gostlin Keefer Lake Lodge offer cat-skiing/boarding for the powderhounds who just can’t get enough fresh tracks. Venture out in the comforts of a snowcat then dance your way down in pristine powder 8s. These cat skiing operations tend to book out a year in advance, so book early or phone in to put your name on a waitlist.
