Silver Star Mountain Resort: Silver Star Mountain - Village

Silver Star Mountain Resort is best known in British Columbia for its ski slopes on SilverStar Mountain. Set above Vernon on the northern side of the Okanagan Valley, the resort brings alpine terrain and a purpose-built village together in the province’s southern interior. Its central village uses Victorian-era styling, a deliberate visual identity that distinguishes it from the city below. Winter is centred on downhill skiing, snowboarding and Nordic skiing, while the mountain is also used for summer cycling and hiking. Vernon’s lakes and orchards lie to the south, placing the resort between high-country recreation and the Okanagan’s agricultural landscape.

British Columbia has served as Canada’s Pacific frontier since joining Confederation in 1871. This vast western province extends from the Pacific coast across the Coast Mountains and interior plateaus to the Canadian Rockies; these coordinates lie in its sparsely settled northern interior. The Fraser, British Columbia’s longest river, drains a large part of the province before reaching the Strait of Georgia. First Nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain integral to communities throughout the province. Victoria, on Vancouver Island, is the provincial capital, while Vancouver is its largest city and a major Pacific port. Forestry, mining, fisheries and outdoor travel all reflect a terrain where waterways and mountain corridors matter.

Canada has served as a frontier between French and British colonial powers since the 17th century. The world’s second-largest country extends from Atlantic shores to the Pacific and Arctic coasts, with the Canadian Shield, the Rocky Mountains, the Great Lakes and the St. Lawrence River shaping its vast geography. First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples are central to Canada’s identity, while Ottawa’s Parliament Hill represents its federal political life. French remains the official language of Quebec, adding a distinct dimension to the country’s public culture. See how Canada connects across North America by browsing webcams in neighbouring regions.
