2 hours or 100 km east of Vancouver lays the quaint alpine village of Hemlock Valley.
Hemlock Valley is a family oriented winter recreation resort with outdoor activities that include skiing, snow boarding,
snowshoeing, snowmobiling (very restricted), tobogganing (restricted), a tube park and some cross-country skiing (no track setting).

Hemlock Valley is a bowl shaped area and at an elevation of only 3300’ receives some of the deepest snow falls in the coastal area making for some exhilarating and challenging skiing and boarding.
