Resort info
Set among the magnificent peaks of the Purcell range of the Rocky Mountains, a Kimberley ski holiday has a variety of skiing and boarding on around 1,800 acres of tree lined slopes. A small, purpose built village lies at the foot of the slopes, offering ski-in/ski-out accommodation and a laid back, friendly atmosphere, making it an excellent choice for families.
There is a mix of terrain, from gentle rolling cruisers to challenging black trails. Kimberley also boasts North America’s largest gladed terrain, the Black Forest, with a dozen runs where the powder lasts for weeks. The rail park also offers rails, boxes and other features suitable for all riders.
Off the slopes
Trickle Creek Lodge has 80 ski-in/ski-out units at the resort base and is also home to the popular Montana’s BBQ and Bar, a great place for post-ski dinner and drinks. The Stemwinder Bar and Grill in the adjacent Polaris Lodge is also a very popular après spot.
Close to the resort is the pretty town of Kimberley with a number of dining and shopping options. The resort can be reached from Calgary, but is just 10 minutes transfer from the Canadian Rockies International Airport at Cranbrook.
The resort offers cross-country skiing, including a 2 mile loop which is flood-lit every evening. Kimberley also offers the longest illuminated runs in North America for their night skiing on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays for those who like to ski under the stars. Fat-biking, skating and snowshoeing are also available.
