A Quick History

Built on the site of the former local gem, Whitetooth Ski Area, Kicking Horse Mountain Resort officially opened in 2000. It was transformed with a major investment that included the Golden Eagle Express Gondola, instantly putting it on the map for its incredible access to high-alpine terrain. It quickly became known as a must-visit stop on British Columbia’s famous “Powder Highway.”

Resort Overview

This place is big. We’re talking over 3,486 acres of skiable terrain with a staggering 4,314 feet of vertical drop – one of the longest in North America. The resort features five distinct alpine bowls (Crystal Bowl, Bowl Over, Feuz Bowl, Super Bowl, and Redemption Bowl), each offering its own blend of open glades, steep chutes, and powder fields. The terrain heavily favors advanced and expert skiers, but there are still plenty of groomed runs for intermediates and a dedicated learning area for beginners.

Skiing & Snowboarding Activities
With over 120 named runs, the variety is immense. The Golden Eagle Express Gondola whisks you from the base right to the summit, where you can access all five bowls. Beyond the marked trails, Kicking Horse is famous for its inbound backcountry-style terrain that feels wild and untamed. The lift infrastructure, including two quad chairs and a double, efficiently services the lower and mid-mountain areas. If you’re looking for an unforgettable experience, hire a guide to show you the best-kept powder stashes.

Non-Skiing Activities
Not everyone is here for black diamond runs, and that’s okay. Kicking Horse offers a tube park for some lighthearted downhill fun, a picturesque outdoor ice skating rink, and extensive snowshoeing trails. One of the resort’s most unique attractions is the Grizzly Bear Refuge, home to Boo, an orphaned grizzly bear. You can take a ranger-led tour to learn about grizzly conservation while seeing Boo roam his 20-acre mountainside enclosure.

Après-Ski & Restaurants
When the day is done, the experience continues. For a truly memorable meal, make a reservation at the Eagle’s Eye Restaurant. Perched at the summit, it’s Canada’s highest-elevation restaurant and offers breathtaking panoramic views alongside fine dining. Down at the base, the Whitetooth Grill and Peaks Grill offer more casual, family-friendly fare and a classic, buzzing après-ski atmosphere. The town of Golden, a short 15-minute drive away, also has a great selection of pubs and restaurants for a more local vibe. Arranging evening transportation Kicking Horse to Golden is a great way to explore.
