The Okanagan Valley is a winter wonderland for skiers and snowboarders alike, with incredible ski destinations that cater to all levels. From well-known resorts to hidden gems, the Penticton area offers everything you need for an unforgettable ski experience.
Apex Mountain Resort
Located just 40 minutes west of Penticton, Apex Mountain Resort is a local favourite. Known for its light, powdery snow and varied terrain, it’s perfect for skiers and snowboarders of all skill levels. Their 3- and 4-day passes offer excellent savings, making it easy to plan an affordable weekend getaway.
Apex also features well-maintained cross-country skiing trails that can be added to your pass for a reasonable price, giving you even more ways to explore their pristine wilderness.

It’s a paradise for those who love the serenity of the backcountry.

Forty minutes east of Oliver, BC in the southern Okanagan, Mt. Baldy offers a quieter, more laid-back ski experience. With stunning views, fewer crowds, and budget-friendly lift tickets, it’s a hidden gem for families and nature lovers. Mt. Baldy also features cross-country trails for those looking to mix up their ski adventures. For accommodation, check out the many hotel and rental options in Oliver, Osoyoos and Penticton, BC.
Big White Ski Resort
This world-renowned resort east of Kelowna has completed a $1.75 million upgrade to the Bullet Chairlift, and has even more perks for season pass holders (two Buddy Pass tickets, tubing passes, and a growing list of exclusive off-mountain perks).
