Big White Ski Resort

Big White Ski Resort is one big winter playground. Here, at Canada’s largest totally ski-in/ski-out resort village, you’ll find loads of deep Okanagan powder (25 feet annually), 16 lifts, 119 runs, and 1,147 hectares (2,765 acres) of skiable terrain for powderhounds of all ages and abilities.

Cross-country skiers and snowshoers can choose from 25 kilometres (16 miles) of Nordic and dog-friendly wilderness trails, while families can add tubing, dogsledding, snowmobiling, horse drawn sleigh rides, and skating to their winter holiday. The resort also has a full calendar of fun family events from weekly fireworks to the family-favourite “Moose Cruz” where skiers and snowboarders are encouraged to track down clues throughout the mountain, via their phones.

  • Mar 2, 2025: “Big White is truly a ski resort with terrain that suits all levels of skiers and boarders. Mountain snow guides are readily available to help the newbies to the mountain. All staff in all areas were courteous, helpful and accommodating. We will be going back.” 1
  • Mar 2, 2025: “Our second trip to Big White and we loved it even more. The ski in ski out accomodation at Sundance suited us perfectly as it gave us quick and easy access to the mountain. We arrived to snow falling and powder runs on our first day. The tree glades providing plenty of fun for kiwi skiers who dont have this at home. We loved the village atmosphere and are recommending our family returns with their children to enjoy all that this family resort has to offer.” 2
