Snow Areas: Canada - Big White

Canada’s favourite family resort!

Located in scenic British Columbia’s Okanagan Valley, Big White is about 56 kilometers or 35 miles outside the town of Kelowna. The ski area is situated on the side of Big White Mountain and offers terrain suited to span the spectrum of ability levels. The resort is an excellent family destination offering a wide array of family-friendly activities, including snowshoeing, tubing, skating, snowmobiling, dog sledding, horse-drawn sleigh rides and Nordic skiing. 

This is an awesome family resort with plenty of ski-in, ski-out accommodation options.

It usually opens late November to mid-April, so it’s great if you want to spend the holidays in a winter wonderland with your family. Snowfall average is around 750 cm (24.5 ft).
