Whether you’re looking to tearing up some of the Okanagan’s world-famous powder, tobogganing with a group of friends, or going skating with your children,
Apex Mountain Resort is the place to be in winter. 

Avoid the crowds and lift lines while discovering a resort community with character.  And don't let our 2,000 feet vertical fool you. Apex's terrain is famous for its skiability and variety.  We've got everything from well groomed beginner runs to some of North America's best "double-black diamond" runs.  Ski one of these babies top-to-bottom and you'll understand why the locals are always smiling!

Tobaganning & Tube Park

Snowmobiling

Is snowmobiling more your speed?  The area is a favorite for locals, just ask your hosts where the best places are. Or maybe you'd like to rent snowmobiles for your group?   Located in the heart of Apex Village, Apex Alpine Adventures offers some of the best sledding the Okanagan has to offer. It is a day of incredible riding and stunning mountain scenery, all organized by a professional guide.

Snowshoeing is a popular activity at Apex Mountain Resort.  Snowshoe rentals and guided tours are available in the Village, or bring your own and reach the summit of one of the many local peaks. The view will be worth the climb!  You can snowshoe right from our back door, get on some trails and enjoy breathtaking vistas.
