Big White is located 45 miles from Kelowna in the Central Interior of B.C. It receives an average 24.5 feet of light 'champagne powder' every year and offers outstanding skiing and riding opportunities, with a wide variety of terrain.
An eight passenger gondola links the 'Happy Valley' area (ice skating, Alpine Mega SnowCoaster Tubing, Cross Country Skiing, Dogsledding, Snowmobiling, Snowshoeing and lodgings) to the center of the Village.
