Valhalla Powdercats Cat Skiing

Expert Opinion Our Expert
Rupert Hatfield

"Imagine a ski area 6 times the size of Whistler and Blackcomb, and a maximum of 24 people per day able to ski it – some would say heaven..."

Overview

Valhalla's terrain is six times the size of Whistler and Blackcomb combined, offering seasoned skiers a hearty selection of high alpine bowls, steeps, old-growth forests, and endless, untracked Kootenay powder all day long. Expect zero line ups, and the sweetest, deepest white gold you will ever have the good fortune to sink into.

The Kootenay Sampler - offering a truly unique and exciting big mountain multi-adventure trip including ski resorts (Whitewater and Red), hot springs, snow-cat (Valhalla Powdercats) and helicopter skiing (Snowwater Heli-skiing) – combine which elements you want to create your epic powder adventure.
