Big White Ski Resort – The Best in Canada

Big White British Columbia – It’s in the Snow!

Looking for your perfect ski vacation? Then look no further than Big White, British Columbia, the greatest ski resort in the whole of Canada!

Big White used to be BC’s best kept secret, but not anymore… Now, it is well-known as being BC’s best Family Ski Resort.

Indeed, British Columbia’s best resort has come a long way since opening in 1963 with just a single T-bar lift. Now, it’s the world class ski resort everyone’s talking about!

Here are 5 reasons why Big White Ski Resort is the place to be this winter:

1. Getting Here is a Breeze

Just 50 kilometres from Kelowna International Airport, Big White is an easily accessible resort that ticks all the boxes for your next ski holiday.

Big White operates an airport shuttle bus and Express bus to Kelowna, and if you’re driving up to resort, parking is easy.

Getting to Big White is quite simply a breeze, and you’ll be on the slopes before you can say, “Best Ski Holiday Ever!”

2. A World Class Resort

Big White is the third largest ski resort in British Columbia, after the Rockies’ resorts of Whistler/Blackcomb and Sun Peaks.

With high speed chairs, and over 100km of marked runs, Big White, Kelowna is a skier and snowboarder’s heaven!

And with 18% beginner trails, 56% intermediate and 26% expert, Big White has enough to keep everyone at every age and at every level happy!

Can’t get enough of skiing? Big White Resort, is also known for its extensive night skiing, so you can ski all day and into the night!

More into tricks and big air? Then look no further than Big White’s world famous Telus Park. This brilliant park was awarded second place in USA Today’s ’10 Best in North America’. With rails, jumps, and border-cross, even the most extreme winter sports enthusiasts will be able to take their riding to the next level!

3. Champagne Powder

‘It’s in the snow!’ That’s Big White’s tagline, and an understatement.

Champagne powder, in fact, is probably Big White Mountain Resort’s worst kept secret.

The heights of the Okanagan Highlands has become famous for a special kind of snow, known locally as ‘Champagne Powder’, with over 24 feet of it dumping in the resort every year!

Champagne powder is unique to just a handful of North American resorts. It’s a rare, dry, smooth snow, which ensures brilliant conditions for skiing and creates a powder dreamland!

Try to make a snowball when you arrive and you’ll see what we mean. There’s something strangely different about our snow!
