Local Vancouver Skiing

Some of the best local Vancouver skiing can be found at Cypress Mountain.

Getting to Cypress it takes less than 30 minutes from the majority of the downtown Vancouver hotels, and timeshares.

Local mountains have long been a part of the city's outdoor activities.

Cypress is one of the local venues that hosted the Winter 2010 sports events in freestyle, freestyle moguls, freestyle aerials, snowboard, snowboard freestyle, snowboard halfpipe, and freestyle ski cross

Cypress Mountain Ski Hills

You can purchase day or evening passes as well as family packages that also include the use of the ski chair lift and access to the runs as well. Parking is usually good but because many people love to ski, doesn’t mean they know how to drive in the snow.

Where possible, try to get a shuttle up to the hills so you can spend your time in Vancouver skiing instead of being worried about about car rentals (damage deposits) and driving in the snow.

Cheap Ski Vacations

One way to cut your costs is to keep your eye on Vancouver discount ski vacations that are usually advertised early in the season and then again near the end of the season.

With a little pre-planning it is possible to ski Vancouver and Whistler for that matter fairly cheaply especially if you already have your own equipment and don't have to rent.
