Revelstoke - The Resort... |
|
Revelstoke is one of North America’s newest resorts and already has much to boast about. It has a growing ski area that offers extreme challenges to even the most advanced of skiers, and an average of 40 – 60ft of annual snowfall. The resort village itself is also new, being built during the summer of 2008, and will offer a base area with a small range of bars and restaurants to help you rest your tired legs after a day of powder skiing. Situated just under 2 hours from Kicking Horse, it is perfect to create a twin centre holiday with another of Canada’s steep and extreme skiing paradises.

The skiing and boarding in Revelstoke |

After the success of Revelstoke’s inaugural season; North America has a new player vying for the title of most challenging and exciting resort. Its uncrowded slopes leave you with a playground of incredible steeps, huge bowls and long, fast rollers that will give you one of the best skiing experiences in the world. With the expansion during the summer to open up more terrain, the skiing experience will be turned up another notch for the 2008-09 season, including the creation of North American’s longest vertical drop of 1.7km. This magnificent ski area has 4 alpine bowls and over 3,000 acres of lift serviced ski terrain, and an abundance of snow which results in a powder lover’s dreamland. It is also the only resort in the world able to boast the ability to lift, cat and heli-ski all from the base village.
