Winter Activities

Downhill Skiing

Only ten minutes from Humber Valley, Marble Mountain, with verticals of 519m (1,700 feet) provides what is often described as the best skiing east of the Canadian Rockies. With over 175 acres of skiable terrain and 35 groomed trails, including a Terrain Park, half-pipe and seven mogul runs, Marble Mountain caters for all levels of skier and snowboarder. The fact that it is still relatively unknown ensures maximum time on the slopes rather than waiting in lift queues.

Group and individual ski lessons are available from the Marble Mountain Ski School, which offers on-snow programs for children aged three and above. All participants are encouraged to try skiing with specially trained instructors, and children can also spend time in the supervised children’s centre, which is filled with educational toys and activities to keep them entertained. Parents can ski the day away knowing that their children are having a wonderful time as well.

New to 2012 is a Magic Carpet lift which makes it even easier for beginners to learn to ski. Night skiing is available on Friday nights (weather dependant) which is either the best end to a week or the best way to start off a weekend!
