Rocky Mountain Skiing
Try A New Ski Resort Every Day
Radium Hot Springs may be a mecca for golfers in the summer, but winter is an entirely different story. Entrenched between both the Rocky Mountains and the Purcell Mountains, Bighorn Meadows Resort is the perfect location for BC ski vacations.
Winter in the mountains means snow, and you’ll have access to more than enough of the white stuff for your favourite skiing activities - whether downhill, cross-country, heli-skiing, or snowboarding.
The Columbia Valley offers some of the best skiing and boarding in the world, and our luxurious Rocky Mountains ski resort is located within a one hour drive of four popular ski resorts and a two and a half hour drive of several more.
You can literally ski a different hill every single day of your vacation, then return to Radium for an après-ski soak in the hot springs and a glass of wine and cozy fire in your suite at Bighorn Meadows.
