Champagne Powder in the Winter

As you might imagine, the winter season is when SilverStar really comes alive. The mountain resort offers 132 marked runs with a vertical drop of 760m (2,500ft) and terrain for all levels. This resort will accommodate families learning as well as experienced pros ready to shred hard.

Every year SilverStar is dumped with over 700cm+ (275in) of fresh powdery snow. There is no snow-making needed – it’s 100% all-natural, all season long. 

While the downhill runs draw big crowds, there are plenty of snow activities off the mountain. The resort connects with Canada’s largest network of cross-country ski trails. Sovereign Lake Nordic provides 105km of trails, 55km of which run through SilverStar. All trails guarantee some of the best grooming in Canada, daily. 

Winter doesn’t stop at the ski chalet! There is a massive natural ice skating pond, several tubing runs that are great for the whole family, and 16km of snowshoe trails for touring. With vacant lots for sale in Vernon, winter might just become your new favourite season!

Wildflower Blooms in the Spring

As the snow melts and the sun shines brighter, the mountain begins to bloom. A colourful rainbow of mountain wildflowers decorates the rugged mountainside. This is a great opportunity to visit the hiking trails. As the gondola continues to run, you can capture a birds-eye view of the stunning mountain scenery.

Inclement weather gives a great opportunity to explore the art gallery – the Gallery Odin. This is the highest art gallery in all of Canada! You can also explore the SilverStar Museum.

Endless Bike Trails in the Summer
