Cypress Mountain was the official Freestyle Skiing and Snowboard Venue for the 2010 Olympic Winter Games. Located in West Vancouver, BC, Cypress is only 30 minutes from downtown Vancouver and provides skiers, riders and sliders with the most vertical drop, most terrain, most lifts and best snow conditions on the highest skiing and riding peak of Vancouver’s Legendary North Shore Mountains.

With unparalleled terrain and the largest vertical rise on the North Shore , Cypress Mountain is Vancouver ‘s premier winter playground. Cypress has 52 downhill winter skiing and riding runs accessed by 6 chairlifts and 2 surface lifts, 19km of track set cross country trails, a snowtubing park with a tube tow lift and amazingly popular snowshoeing tours around the Historic Hollyburn Lodge built in 1926.

During a storm cycle Cypress can offer decent powder skiing, a great stop while traveling to a serious powder destination.
