About the mountain
Know the place.
Fernie Alpine Resort occupies a striking position at the base of the Lizard Range in southeastern British Columbia, consistently receiving some of the deepest natural snowfall in the Canadian Rockies. Five distinct terrain bowls — Lizard, Currie, Timber, Siberia, and Cedar — spread across the mountain, offering powder skiing that has made Fernie famous among committed skiers and riders.
With 2,811 feet of vertical, 142 named runs, and extensive glade and tree skiing, Fernie rewards exploration across multiple days. Groomed groomers provide reliable cruising, while the bowls and glades deliver the challenging terrain the resort is known for. Beginner and intermediate skiers have dedicated areas and comfortable runs to develop their skills.
Below the mountain, the town of Fernie adds a genuine and unpretentious character to the experience — with independent restaurants, local shops, and a community that feels like it belongs to the landscape rather than built for tourism. For those who make the trip, Fernie reliably delivers on its reputation.
