Three days of skiing and village evenings, with a snowshoe day on the escarpment between.

My tripsSaved on this device. Sign in for multi-day plans.

This plan is built around a resort stay so you can walk to the lifts and the restaurants. Book lift tickets, rentals and lessons before the weekend; holiday weeks sell out. Check the snow report and road conditions on the escarpment before driving.

  1. Day 1Arrive, collect rentals and get an afternoon on the lower runs to find your feet. Eat in the village and check the next day's conditions.
  2. Day 2Ski or board for the full day, or swap in cross-country skiing and snowshoeing if the downhill runs are busy. Consider an evening session or the tubing park with children.
  3. Day 3Take an easier morning on the hill or a snowshoe walk on the escarpment trails, then a late lunch in Collingwood or Thornbury before the drive home.
