Big White’s Main Street is actually a ski run, where guests can ski to their doorstep or stroll through the village shopping and dining in world-class restaurants and pubs. This completely ski-in, ski-out modern village provides everything you will need for a great vacation, all within walking distance to your accommodation.
the skiing
The resort enjoys the extra light, easy-to-ski powder of the BC interior. Combined with lots of sunshine, and the quietest slopes you will ever ski on, this is a great spot for serious skiing and relaxation uninterrupted by the crowds. Big White has the unusual advantage that from the top of every lift all skiers will find a slope to suit them. Children's facilities are amongst the very best in the world plus there is a great 'Adventure Park' with tubing, snowmobiling and non-ski activities.
