Fernie Information and Links
Fernie,
British Columbia has developed into a year round recreation site.
Nestled in a valley and surrounded by rugged peaks, the picturesque
City of Fernie lies 5 km (3 miles) east of the Fernie Alpine Resort
where our chalet is located.
No glitz and glamour here, just a historic mining community with
down-to-earth people that are proud to live in the valley.
Leave the noise, crowds and hustle behind you. Big snowbanks,
friendly smiles , great golf courses and peaceful mountain scenery
will make your vacation one to remember. City
of Fernie

More about Fernie!!!
Dreaming of skiing the ultimate snow? It is time for you to discover
Fernie Alpine Resort.
Ski velvet runs after a freshly packed snowfall. Link flawless
turns across the wide open slopes of Cruiser, carve down groomed-to-perfection
North Ridge or venture into the steep and deep among the many treed
runs. Find a special line in the alpine bowls and begin your powder
adventure.
Be challenged to the limit. Test your endurance on the leg pumping
2000' vertical drop of Skydive; dare to be an exhibitionist on Boomerang
bumps; drop off ridges into snow packed trees; or make first tracks
in the Easter Bowl chutes.
