SilverStar and Sovereign Lake 2023 - Downhill and Cross Country Skiing

SilverStar Mountain & Sovereign Lake

Alpine and Nordic  Week Long Ski Trip 

Ski-in Ski-out.   SOLD OUT - MAX 12

 

You have missed out if you have never skied SilverStar downhill or Sovereign Lake cross-country! This year, improve your skiing with this fantastic early-season vacation. 


Boasting some of the best early season snow for downhill and World Cup cross-country skiing, these ski areas open in late November and typically see 7 metres of snowfall every winter, located in the Okanagan Valley 22 km NE of Vernon, BC.


Alpine

SilverStar: This is not a wee ski hill; 3282 acres of downhill skiing with 132 marked runs, 15% beginner, 40% intermediate, 35% advanced and 15% expert steep and deep runs. Generally, the snow is dry and 100% natural; dry champagne powder is magical. The Star rarely endures a big whiteout, like its neighbour!


Nordic

Silver Star has 54 km of Nordic Trails, interconnected with the 55 km of trails at Sovereign Lake Provincial Park. All trails are accessible from SilverStar Resort. Sovereign Lake has hosted World Cup and master races early in the season due to its high-elevation snow and world-class grooming, providing some of the best cross-country skiing on the planet.


Don’t miss out this year; WE ARE STAYING ON HILL in a magnificent spacious vacation home featuring 6 bedrooms and a loft, 5 full bathrooms, 2 kitchens, a washer and dryer and our own private hot tub to relax in at the end of the day. MAXIMUM 12 PERSONS at $460 each, including all taxes for 5 nights! Skiers will prepare their own breakfast and lunches, and group dinner meals will be sorted by participants once signup is complete.
