Winter Adventures
Whitewater Skiing adventures prepares you for 2010 winter Olympics

The old Burlington Railway line from Nelson to Salmo ran through Ymir across the street from the hotel. The track has been removed and it is now a beautiful natural trail for hiking, mountain biking, cross-country skiing, and back-country access. An abundance of wild life and spectacular natural scenery can be observed while walking this trail along the Salmo River. The natural beauty will take your breath away!

Cradled in BC's legendary Selkirk Mountains, renowned for epic winters, Whitewater’s dependable snowfall totals over 10 meters a season. That is more than 40 feet! There just aren’t many resorts that see snowfalls as big, as often. Factor in the 5400 ft/1640m base elevation and you get the most reliable ski resort in the West.

The Salmo Ski Hill, located 6 kilometers to the South, is a bit gentler and offers downhill night skiing.
