OUR OPINION
Real and authentic ski town of the B.C Interior.
Known for its steep and deep terrain.
Option for ski-in ski-out lodging at the base of the ski area, or in the town centre.
Good selection of other winter activities, including cat-skiing, dogsledding and snowmobiling.
Close to the newly expanded Canadian Rockies International Airport in Cranbrook (1.25 hour drive).
Part of The Powder Highway and ideal for a stop on a ski safari trip.
