Big White | Blake Jorgenson Big White | Blake Jorgenson Big White Ski Resort
Big White Ski Resort is one big winter playground, home to Canada’s largest ski-in/ski-out resort village.
You’ll find loads of deep Okanagan powder here (nearly 7.5 m/25 ft annually) blanketing 1,147 hectares (2,834 acres) of skiable terrain, all serviced by one of Canada’s largest lift systems catering to skiers and snowboarders of all ages and skill levels.
Explore 25 km (16 miles) of Nordic and dog-friendly wilderness trails for cross-country and snowshoeing, and families will find even more to love with tubing, dogsledding, snowmobiling, horse-drawn sleigh rides, and ice skating. The resort also has a full calendar of fun events ranging from weekly fireworks to the family-favourite “Loose Moose” challenge, where guests solve clues as they explore the mountain.
