Snow Activities

Let it snow

Winter transforms Boundary Country into a snowy playground where quiet trails, alpine peaks and frozen lakes invite you outside. Ski the champagne powder at Big White, snowshoe through forested valleys or join the excitement at local ski hills. Whether you’re carving, gliding or just enjoying the sparkle, snow season here hits differently.

Activities

Hit the slopes at Big White, Baldy or Phoenix for downhill thrills, family tubing and fresh mountain air. Glide along Nordic trails at Marshall Lake or trek snowshoe routes from Christina Lake to the alpine. Join a snowmobiling tour or try ice fishing on Jewel or Wilgress Lake. With crisp skies, soft snow and plenty of space, winter in Boundary is full of ways to play.

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.
