BC Coast Mountain Range

Turn the key and rev up your winter adventure—it’s time to hit the West Coast!

Vancouver Island boasts Mount Washington and Mount Cain, two gems of skiing and snowboarding in British Columbia, where a unique coastal mountain culture thrives. Dreaming of the ultimate winter weekend? Only here can you ski or snowboard iconic slopes in the morning and catch waves in the Pacific by afternoon. Talk about the best of both worlds! 

B.C.’s West Coast is also home to Whistler, need we say more about this international icon? This world-famous destination delivers legendary skiing, snowboarding, cross-country skiing, luge runs, alongside countless other winter adventures wrapped in Olympic history.

Closer to the city? The Lower Mainland offers Cypress Mountain, Grouse Mountain, and Mount Seymour—each with its own vibe and history, perfect for skiing and snowboarding or trying new winter activities. British Columbia’s coastal mountain range has it all, from adrenaline-packed thrills to postcard-perfect moments.
