Fernie Alpine Resort is located southwest of the community of Fernie, British Columbia in the Kootenay region of BC, Canada. Fernie Alpine Resort is a year round recreation destination popular for mountain biking and hiking in the summer and skiing and snowboarding in the winter.

During the summer months the resort is a popular mountain biking destination. The downhill trails are serviced by two lifts which provide access to popular trails like the Power Curve, Deer Trail, Megasaurus, Black Forest and the White Pass.

The alpine resort is a full service resort with accommodations, restaurants, rentals, gift stores and pubs. Services run at their peak in the winter months during the ski season. The mountain resort is best known for its winter recreation, although mountain biking is still very popular.

The popular ski hill is a full service destination with over 114 designated ski trails and 5 bowls with plenty of tree runs. There is the RCR Trail Park with boxes and rails. The resort skiable area covers about 2504 acres with a vertical drop of 857 m (2816 ft).

In the back country on the lower slopes of the mountain are another 14 kilometres of trails set aside for cross country skiers. Trails are both groomed and track.

Fernie Alpine Resort ski runs are tailored for all skiers and snowboards regardless of skill. 30% of the runs are "Novice Runs" designed for beginners. 40% of the runs are for the Intermediate skier while 20% are set aside for expert skiers. The longest run on the mountain is the 5 kilometre Falling Star run.

The whole system of ski runs is serviced by 10 ski lifts in total. They include 2 high speed quad chairs, 2 quad chairlifts, 2 triple chairlift and 4 surface lifts.

On the mountain there is a good selection of vacation homes, cottages, chalets, condos, town houses and hotels. But, like all ski hills in British Columbia, the winter season is busier and the availability of accommodations is less. Book early to avoid disappointment.

Fernie Alpine Resort also offers helicopter ski tours, night skiing, dog sledding, snowshoeing and snowmobile tours to larger groups.
