Best Ski Resort for Snowboarders in British Columbia: Revelstoke - Snowboarders Rating

Snowboarders absolutely rave about Revelstoke. Our reviewers mention that the tree runs and powder are consistently exceptional, with advanced rider Matthew calling it his "favourite mountain" where he "learned how to freeride." The terrain offers something special for boarders, with one user describing it as having "Japan powder but with Canadian mountain terrain." Expert rider Jarrod loves the "amazing glades and tree runs," while Jordan highlights the lack of lift lines. The mountain's steeper terrain makes it particularly appealing for snowboarders, as Shawnee points out. When fresh snow falls, the powder stashes throughout the mountain keep boarders coming back season after season.

#2 SilverStar - Snowboarders Rating

Snowboarders at SilverStar rave about the mountain's diverse terrain. One Snomad community member liked that "the backside double blacks really set SilverStar apart from hills in the area." The resort caters to all ability levels, with an advanced rider noting you can "always find good stuff" even in lighter snow years. Tree runs are particularly popular, with several boarders highlighting them in their reviews. For beginners, there are "plentiful green runs with side paths" and "quieter areas to learn techniques." The terrain park gets solid props too, with one user pointing out that "almost every feature is fabricated in-house" to help riders progress.

#3 Sun Peaks - Snowboarders Rating

Sun Peaks gets snowboarders buzzing with its exceptional terrain across three mountains. Our reviewers mention that the powder is "amazing" and the tree runs are particularly stellar. A user who is an advanced snowboarder said, "When it snows, it goes!" The new West Bowl lift has expanded the exploratory options, while the terrain park receives high marks for being well-maintained. Some Snomad community members highlight that while the resort caters brilliantly to all levels, advanced riders might cover the entire mountain in about three days - though as one user points out, "it never gets boring." The Bushwhacker glades are particularly popular among powder-hunters.
