Heli-Skiing From Bighorn Revelstoke
Set in Revelstoke, British Columbia in the very heart of Canadian heli-ski country, Bighorn redefines luxury heli-skiing. Perched at the bottom of Revelstoke Mountain Resort this spectacular 5-star chalet not only boasts instant access to ski lifts (with Canada’s longest vertical drop) and snow cat skiing but also has its own private heli-pad just metres from the front door.
While Revelstoke has a growing number of impressive chalets, Bighorn remains the ultimate in 5-star decadence with genuine luxury, attention to detail and importantly: unlimited flexibility. Heli-skiing, cat skiing, resort skiing; it’s all there for you to enjoy in any kind of combination and as much or as little as you like.
Selkirks and Monashees
The Selkirks and Monashees are famous for attracting vast quantities of low density powder snow and have been a magnet for heli-skiing for over 30 years.
Sandwiched between the Coast and the Rocky Mountains this is a unique region where all the ingredients for perfect heli-skiing fall into place – cool temperatures, lots of snow, big mountains, reliable flying conditions and epic ski terrain.
Unrivalled flexibly is a major part of Bighorn’s appeal and part of what makes it unique. Whether you want to try heli-skiing for just a day or two, mix it up with some cat skiing and resort skiing or indulge in the full week of total decadence, the possibilities are endless…and all organised without you having to lift a finger.
The idea was to take the type of super-luxury chalet you might find in Courchevel or Gstaad and transplant it into the Canadian wilderness, the heartland of heliskiing.
