Revelstoke Resort
Revelstoke Town

Frontline to the action

Revelstoke is a relatively new resort but quickly makes a name for itself as a venue for the pros and powder junkies. A towering presence, After 2 Gondolas, you are still nowhere near the top of this impressive mountain. It has the longest vertical drop in North America, with a great vibe on and off the mountain. Vast terrain with easy access to the backcountry and industrial amounts of snow ensures this is a must-see for any enthusiast. The town is considered to have one of the best collections of eateries on the Powder Highway, with influences from all over the world.

The lodge books up early and places are very limited we only take 12 in the lodge and 24 on the program, staying at alternative accommodation in town when the lodge is full.

Whats in town?

A real melting pot for pros and powder junkies

One of the most interesting North American towns, steeped in history and fueled by a new awakening for the nearby monster terrain of Revelstoke and beyond. With the neighbouring Rogers Pass and Ghost peak providing awesome backdrops, the town itself doesn’t disappoint either.

Plenty of varied restaurants and takeaways are not often found this far north in one town, you can explore menus from the middle east to India, Asia to Mexico and of course some of the best Canadian mountain food on the Powder Highway.

A truly great vibe it’s hard not to fall in love with the place.
