Positioned close enough to be easy to get to, but just far enough away to escape the crowds, Revelstoke exists in a Goldilocks zone of getaways. Whether you’re joining us from abroad, or within driving distance, follow these routes and we’ll get you from your front door, to our little mountain town in no time.

This winter has certainly been all over the map for us with Mother Nature tossing us a mixed bag of conditions including huge dumps of snow, gorgeous sunny days, several inversions, warm spouts and polar vortexes. Some may get the impression that spring drawing nigh will bring more predictable conditions with slushy snow and blue skies as far as the eye can see but Revelstoke often defies that stereotype. Here are our top 6 reasons why we love Revelstoke in the spring:

In fall of last year we announced that we will be developing a new lift which will be spinning for the 2019.20 winter season. We've since had several inquiries looking for more info and we're here to arm you with the dirty details on our brand spankin’ new lift.

The holidays are a busy time of year for ski resorts and we tend to get wrapped up in the hustle and focus on what's coming at us next. We obsessively check the forecast, pester patrol to see what runs are going to open next, prep for upcoming events and even start to get our ducks in a row for summer (yikes!). Although our days are spent thinking mostly about the future, it would be a shame not to pay homage to the incredible year we've just finished up. Check out the highlights from 2018:

Our 18.19 season is off to a roaring start, as we’ve just surpassed 5 metres of snowfall so far this season. In comparison to previous years on this date, we’re sitting 66 cm above last year and this is our third highest snowfall, on this date on record since 2007. So far we’ve witnessed a ton of pow slashes and heard a heck of a lot of hooting and hollering for only being one month into the season. Here’s a peek into what December has looked like here at Revelstoke Mountain Resort:

Armed with a great support group, I dilly-dallied my way under the ‘out of bounds’ ropes on an Intro To Backcountry Tour with Mountain Skills Academy & Adventures, a new tour designed for those looking for a first taste of the world beyond the resort boundaries. Here I share with you some tidbits I learned along the way:What makes it interesting? Write a catchy description to grab your audience's attention...

Eating at Main Street Noodles is like bringing your taste buds on a trip around Asia. Take a look at our Asian inspiration for a few of our menu items:

The word is finally out – there’s a new kid in town and it happens to be a noodle joint. While many are still grieving the loss of Dups Burrito’s (RIP, Chief Burrito), we have our sights set on our expanding food choices here in Whistler. We sat down with the chef for Main Street Noodles, Steph Gagné (who also happens to be our head chef at Brickworks) to get the inside scoop on the new restaurant opening up in Whistler.

It seems that anyone with an Instagram account this summer is hunting for a breathtaking turquoise lake to pose in front of – and why wouldn’t they? Comparable to waterfalls, they are the stage for stunning mountain views, an incredible connection to nature and for the brave, a refreshing dip. These unique natural beauties are appreciated by nature enthusiasts worldwide. Lucky for us, British Columbia is peppered in turquoise gems and Garibaldi Lake is a 5-carat diamond.

Ever so discrete shout out to Biggie Smalls aside, there is some exciting snow related news (read: snews) coming out of Whistler Blackcomb this week. As one who inputs snow data each morning while you all are snuggled in your sleep sacks, I get immense satisfaction out of watching these numbers climb or even better, jump, over the season. And let me tell you this was a delight.
