Mount Washington has long been known for having good snow conditions from early in winter to well past Easter. This accounts, in part, for Mount Washington being the third-busiest winter recreation destination in BC, behind Whistler/Blackcomb and Big White.

Mt. Washington Alpine Resort offers something for everyone, featuring an average snowfall of 900 cm (30 feet), 50 marked runs, snow tubing, cross country skiing, snowshoeing trails and a snowboard terrain park. Click on map to right to enlarge.

Mount Washigton are map of ski runs A great deal of Mount Washington's charm comes from its location. On a clear day, visitors look out across the Strait of Georgia at a panorama of the Sunshine Coast, from Powell River to Sechelt, with the peaks of the Coast Mountains rising in a long march behind. Closer at hand, the many peaks adorning Strathcona Park's Forbidden Plateau region look suitably magnificent.

You'll find just about everything you need on the mountain including a restaurant, lounge, shops, equipment rentals, lessons and even a Kid's Zone.

Mount Washington Ski Resort is located 20 miles (32 km) northwest of Courtenay on Vancouver Island. With the new Inland Island Highway and paved Strathcona Parkway to Mt.Washington, traveling time from Victoria is only 3 hours. [ See map of area - click here ]

The Comox Valley and Campbell River Airports are serviced daily by Pacific Coastal Airlines and Air Canada. The Nanaimo ferry terminals are serviced from Horseshoe Bay and Tsawwassen on the Lower Mainland.

Mount Washington is a "real" family holiday destination and surely will please everyone!
