 Purden
Ski Village is the largest ski mountain in central British Columbia,
and provides some of the best skiing and snowboarding in the
province.
Over 1,100 vertical feet of skiing on dry powder snow, treed
runs and uncrowded slopes makes Purden Ski Village a paradise
for skiers. The longest run (Lakeview) has over two km of fabulous
terrain!
Purden Ski Village is located 38 miles (60 km) due east of Prince
George on the Yellowhead Highway, and 91 miles (145 km) northwest
of McBride.
The mountain is a 4-km drive north of the highway. |
