British Columbia

Once you ski BC, you'll see why this is a world-renowned hot spot for skiing and snowboarding. Winter in British Columbia is pure adventure—home to world-famous BC skiing destinations as well as local-favourite spots, where uncrowded slopes and deep powder awaits. But, show, don’t tell, right? 

Picture skiing the longest t-bar in North America, shredding metre deep powder, gliding down the slopes with a view of the ocean, soaking in steamy hot springs with snowflakes falling around you. These are just a few of the awe-inspiring winter experiences you can have when you ski BC.

And it's not just skiing and snowboarding! British Columbia invites you to savour the winter season with activities that range from cross-country skiing, snowshoeing and fat biking to après-ski spots and outdoor festivals that light up the winter nights.
