Tree Skiing

If we can't go up, you'll love going down.

Selkirk Mountain Experience has become famous for the Durrand Glacier and its open alpine runs. But our tree skiing is equally spectacular. On days when the weather conditions rule out the alpine, you won't find our guests sitting around in a hut playing cards. They'll be off playing in the trees instead.

There are five different tree-skiing areas at the Durrand. They wander through steep lines, open glades, and variable slopes to the valley floor far below. These hugely varied lines offer runs of up to 3,500 vertical feet through almost perfectly spaced trees. With a climb back up in the magnificent silence of spectacular old-growth forests.

Many of our guests actually come for our tree skiing. But even those who came for the powder bowls of the upper Durrand finish a day of our tree skiing with big smiles on their faces.
