The Skiers' Guide to Calabogie Peaks

A great family hill, great ski school, great snow, a lovely resort! We will definitely be going back soon!

This is the highest peak in Ontario, consisting of mostly intermediate runs, with gentler slopes for novices. Interesting, varied terrain.

Fun hill about an hour outside Ottawa. Ontario's tallest but serviced by two slower fixed grip quads so the ride up is longer than your ride down. The views off the top over the lake are nice. Signage is a bit lacking you can find yourself in the wrong spot pretty easy but luckily it isn't anything where it puts you in serious danger if you're a strong rider or skier.

Calabogie has been improving year after year. More snow makers, fast and efficient rentals. Great bands upstairs and good food. You can tell money is being put into the hill to attract more skiers and it is working. If they built ski in/ski out chalets on the sides of the hill with hot tubs it would be great!

I learned to ski here. It is a very nice place, laid back and very family oriented. The hills are not the most challenging but they are fun to ride when conditions are good. Get there early before the slopes get too icy.

Not very many good hills in Ontario, but sadly, this one is the best in Ontario. Good hill to learn skiing as well!!

Calabogie is a great ski resort for Ontario. There are many different runs ranging from challenging to easy. Although there are only two lifts, the lines go pretty quickly. The mountain is pretty large and offers longer runs that go on the sides of the mountain. I go to Calabgie a few times every year and always enjoy it.

We had a lot of fun at Calabogie Peaks! Even though we stayed on a weekend where there was a ski race going on, we still felt like we had the whole mountain to ourselves. Lots of interesting terrain to try, and with enough snow, some fun off-piste and tree options available. Not too much food options or apres ski

Calabogie has a decent elevation and variety of runs. The facility is efficient and well maintained. The lifts are quick and staff is friendly. It is the best option within an hour from Ottawa. I have been back several times in the last two years and have never been disappointed.

Always a great time at the peaks!! Eastern Ontarios best kept secret. Hills are always well groomed and they have a variety of different runs

Loved my first time here! The staff were very friendly and helpful, the skiing conditions were amazing despite early season limited runs open. Lift lines very well managed and I found the food very affordable compared to other ski areas! Will be back!

A fun, little mountain that holds a special place in heart. I learned to ski here, back in the day. Always had a great time with family.

Good ski resort with great runs! I have been there several times and everytime had a great time going down the slopes. They make snow too so it makes for a great day in the hills. Love this place close to Ottawa.

Calabogie is our local hill. We have been regulars there for many years. It can be icy at times and it hasn't had all runs open for the last three seasons due to lack of snow, but their staff and ski school is great. We appreciate it for being a great starter hill for our kids.

Great laidback atmosphere
Super friendly staff
Awesome snow making
Also check out the town of Calabogie where there is a nice brewery and restaurants

My experience was good at this ski hill, it was fairly quite and the runs were nicely groomed. However the park was closed at the time, and there is a lack of tree runs at this resort.

Great family ski resort not far from Ottawa. This is a good place for kids to learn. All three of my kids learned at this hill. Ski school was excellent. Very friendly instructors.

If you go on a weekend it will be extremely busy and the lifts are slow. But on a weekday the hill is open and the lifts are fast. The runs are always well groomed and there a lot of fun off piste trails.

Been to calabogie peak early last season and first thing that was flagrant is that the mountain was quite small. Which is not a big deal. Then, the base chalet was not that impressive, barely enough space to get dressed up and finding a secure spot for you bags is nearly impossible. Chair lift are slow and crowded but the slopes are nice and well maintained. Terrain park wasn't operational at that time but from what i could see, there was not much to look forward to anyway. The off track experience was amazing.

Calabogie Peaks is a gem for skiers in Ontario. It boasts the provinces tallest vertical drop, offering a variety of trails for all abilities. The slopes are well-maintained, with excellent options for both beginners and seasoned skiers. The lift system is efficient, and the views of Calabogie Lake from the summit are stunning. Après-ski options include a cozy lodge with great food and a welcoming atmosphere. The resorts friendly staff and well-run ski school make it ideal for families. Whether for a day trip or a weekend getaway, Calabogie Peaks delivers a memorable skiing experience.
