LOCATED in the heart of super, natural British Columbia, Big White is a family favourite resort in Canada, with its Okanagan champagne powder, world–famous snow ghosts and Canada's second largest lifting system.

Owned and operated by the same family who once ran Mt Hotham, Big White Ski Resort has it all, according to resort spokesperson Nikki Wiart.

"We've got diverse terrain, guaranteed snow, a vibrant dining scene, and great deals," she said.

She has five reasons why Big White should be your next ski holiday destination.

1.Terrain For Every Ability

From cruisy groomers to powder bowls and glades, Big White has terrain for every age and ability.

With 119 runs of varying difficulty, and a green run from every lift, your family can enjoy exploring the mountain together and still challenge yourself!

2. Ski–In, Ski–Out

As Canada's largest totally ski–in, ski–out resort village you can walk, ski or snowboard to every accommodation, restaurant and activity in the resort.

No matter where you stay on the mountain, you can strap on your planks and be on our terrain in a matter of minutes.

Whether you have young kids, are a first timer, or are looking to give those ski legs a refresh, the Big White Ski and Board School has you covered.
