Winter Activities
Wondering what you’d do in Penticton over the winter, wonder no more! Whether you’re looking to hit the mountains skiing and snowboarding
Apex is a family friendly mountain just 35km from our condo! This is a hidden gem not many know about in the Okanagan. The mountain is open from December to March and offers a great variety of terrain for all skill levels. It features almost 80 marked runs and 40+ unmarked.
Because Apex is easy accessed from nearby cities, they host a variety of events, races and holiday specials throughout the season. Guests enjoy after-hours events such as club nights with DJ’s spinning beats to big belly laughs at Comedy Night events, both hosted at the Gunbarrel Saloon. The Dummy Downhill is a classic cap for the end of an epic season at Apex. Vertical & Vintages and Brewski tasting events mix VQA wines, excellent craft beer and spirits tastings and food mixed with socializing and networking at its best.
While family fun peaks at Christmas with the arrival of Santa and his gifts for the good little boys and girls, Apex Resort hosts several family-friendly events throughout the season.
Skating
Glide your way across the ice as you skate with the mountains as a backdrop. Try the 1 km Adventure Skating Loop at Apex Mountain Resort.
Tube Park
When you visit a tube park you’ll discover that you don’t need to be on your feet to enjoy flying down the side of the mountain. Big inner tubes with handles offer a more comfortable – but still just as exciting – trip down the run. Plus, you don’t have to walk back up.
