Revelstoke – British Columbia
Revelstoke Mountain Resort is a renowned ski destination located in the Columbia Mountains of British Columbia. Famous for its incredible powder snow, challenging terrain, and extensive vertical descent, Revelstoke attracts skiers and snowboarders from all around the world. Revelstoke boasts the longest vertical descent in North America at 1,713 metres (5,620 feet), covers over 3,121 acres of terrain, offering a mix of groomed runs, open bowls, glades, and challenging steeps. It’s especially popular with advanced skiers and snowboarders, though there is terrain suitable for intermediates and beginners as well.
Revelstoke’s mix of high-quality snow and challenging terrain has made it a bucket-list destination for powder enthusiasts and experienced riders. However, the resort continues to improve its offerings for intermediate and beginner skiers with more groomed runs and facilities catering to less experienced visitors.
The resort’s base area has a cozy village atmosphere, with lodges, restaurants, shops, and other amenities that make it a welcoming spot to relax after a day on the slopes.
