Winter in wine country with some of Big White’s champagne powder? Yes please! I flew up with Air Canada to do some #OkanaganExploring with ZenSeekers to see just how easy it is to Ski, Stay & Play in Kelowna during the winter months. I learned rather quickly that snow days and rosés go very well together.

Winter and Kelowna: Ski, Stay and Play

Snowshoe in the Winery

Hike or snowshoe in the vineyard and then enjoy a tasting back at the winery. You can also catch some behind the scenes action and see what goes on at a winery in the winter.

Enjoy fondue with wine or cider pairings in the tasting room. Warm up with cheesy goodness or some sweet strawberries all paired with delicious wines from The View.

The Skinny on Après in Downtown Kelowna

Where: Skinny Duke’s Glorious Emporium (1481 Water St, Kelowna)
Come for the Roman-style pizzas, dim sum and Thai fusion, stay for the plush and fringy rumpus room decor. Tiki mugs filled with craft cocktails? They have that too!

ProTip: Meet up with a Snow Host. This is my favourite program, and it’s totally complimentary thanks to Big White and its big-hearted volunteers. Meet in the village at 10:30am on any given morning and look for the yellow jacket Snow Hosts. They’ll split into groups based on experience level and desired runs then show you the mountain and tell you everything you ever wanted to know about the area. It’s fun, it’s friendly, and it’s the best way to see Big White (they know where to find all the best powder).
