What Skiers Say About Revelstoke

Revelstoke attracts predominantly advanced and expert skiers and snowboarders seeking deep powder and challenging terrain. Users consistently highlight exceptional tree skiing, long vertical runs, and frequent snowfall that creates excellent off-piste conditions. The resort is praised for minimal lift queues outside peak periods, though gondola waits can exceed 30-40 minutes after fresh snowfall on weekends and holidays. Several reviewers note the limited lift infrastructure for the mountain's size, requiring traverses that challenge snowboarders. Lower elevation runs frequently suffer from warm temperatures and poor snow quality, while upper mountain terrain remains snow-sure. The town is close to the resort but separated, affecting après-ski convenience.

Great mountain! We ended up riding the same area all day because the snow was best there. There are some areas that are more beginner - friendly, but as a whole the mountain is pretty steep with lots of snow. Super fun trees!

Not for the faint of heart, but if you like powder, glades or hiking to untouched areas, Revy is for you.

This mountain is incredible. So much fun powder! The Rockford restaurant is very good, but wish the resort had more food options. I believe this is on the way!

Skiing was awesome, not a beginner hill but as an intermediate- advanced skier it was just phenomenal. Food at base was great, food at the outpost was good. Staff was friendly and able to help.

Revelstoke is where you go to get lots of vertical and great snow in western Canada. Having been to several resorts in BC and Alberta, Revy stands out as a place with lots of terrain variation, long runs, and frequent dumps of snow.

Great ski area but it’s sprawled out and could use a few more lifts. But excellent snow conditions and friendly staff.

Unbelievable off piste and tree skiing. Just a shame the town is a short drive from the slopes as it makes the apres disjointed. But that’s the same for
Most of North America.

We went to Revy this year for the first time and I absolutely loved it as an advance rider. It has really nice tree and powder terrain, both steep & mellow options, and the snow stays dry and fluffy all the time!

Great powder resort, lots of possibilities for tree runs. Lots of fluffy snow. During the week it's pretty empty, but on the weekend + powder day the lift queues are too long. 40min+ at the gondola and 30min at the chairlift. The lift tickets are 190$, so if you want sth for your money go there during the week, not worth on a weekend. By lunch we did only 4 runs, because we spent most of our time standing in line (on a Saturday) during the week no queues at all! Best tree runs of my life

Fantastic resort with back country vibe. Powder is insane.

Lift lines for the gondola can be long in the early morning after a big snow. Be patient as it is worth the wait.

This is my favourite mountain to ski! It is always an amazing time. The small town has lots of food options and accommodation. The hill is pretty steep which makes it great for snowboarders. It also seems to get the best powder!

Revelstoke is the best mountain I have every skied. Insane powder every day, short lift lines, and stunning views from the gondola. Tree skiing is awesome. mogul patches awesome, cut trails...awesome. The lodge is nice, but could use some more options for food, or perhaps an easier way to get to the mountain from town. Revy the town holds its small ski town feel, as opposed to a tourist trap like banff/whistler. Love everything about it.

When there is snow, absolute bliss to be out on the hill. When there isnt much snow, pretty limited on number of runs you can access because of the terrain. Best smash burgers at mckenzie outpost with a great begbie cream ale to wash it down

I have frequented Revelstoke Mountain Resort for several years now and it never disappoints. From weekend trips with friends to month long vacations with my family I have always been guaranteed a good time with powder options. The staff is prompt and courteous when I have approached them with a problem and they were quick to help solve it to my satisfaction. As well the friendly apres vibe is always nice after a day in the mountain.

Went to revelstoke for a stag. We landed on the perfect day, 30 cm of fresh pow. All of revelstoke was shut down, and the line up in was a mile long. We can through our lineup pretty quickly (May 30~ min) and after that innitial lift there really weren't any blockages in the arteries throughout the day. Spent the next two days grinding out that pow, would go back to Revelstoke in a heartbeatReally enjoyed town, lots to do, everyone was super nice and there for a general good time... which falls in line with banff, lake louise & fernie any time i've ever been to them too.Would go back immediately
