Mountain Activities

Head for the hills

Boundary Country’s mountains offer four seasons of elevation-fuelled adventure. Carve fresh powder, hike alpine ridgelines, ride lift-accessed bike parks or snowshoe quiet forest trails. With peaks like Big White, Baldy and Phoenix, the region is packed with scenic terrain, fresh air and no shortage of ways to play at altitude.

Activities

In every season, the mountains here deliver. Ski and snowboard deep powder at Big White or Baldy, race the Spring Fling Dummy Downhill at Phoenix or hike alpine trails bursting with wildflowers. Come summer, ride Big White’s world-class bike park or explore scenic loops above Greenwood. Crisp fall hikes, starlit snowshoeing - this is peak adventure, year-round.

A red vintage car is parked on a quiet street lined with historic brick buildings under a clear blue sky in a small town, creating a perfect scene for photography enthusiasts.

Stop, take a look around. There is so much to see

There are many varied backdrops, from dense forests and alpine meadows to preserved heritage buildings that offer a glimpse of the past and unique architectural photography opportunities. Our many trails, lakes, rivers, open night skies and provincial parks are stunning, offering amazing views and photography options.
