Ski area Fernie
The Fernie ski area (1,068 to 1,925 m) consists of an extensive, over 1,000 hectare large terrain. Here, you can find 5 alpine bowls with 112 pistes, which consists of 30 blue, 40 red, and 30 (!) black. 9 lifts, with 2 being high speed, provide rapid transport, almost always without a waiting line. The ski area is considered to be extremely varied. With long, well-prepared pistes, gorgeous forest trails, steep runs, and untouched deep snow slopes, every ski and snowboard fan can get their full money's worth. In the ski area, 9 restaurants and huts take care of providing a lovely atmosphere and a relaxing place to rest. For the real pros, recommended is one of the guided tours, "first tracks" (skiing on pristine, deep-snow pistes) or "steep and deep". Sign ups can be carried out at the Telus Winter Sports School. Next to heliskiing, cost-effective catskiing is very common. Skiers will be taken to the untouched deep-snow slopes via snow cat. Providers are Island Lake Cat Skiing and Fernie Wilderness Adventure.

The Fernie Aquatic Centre offers a swimming pool with steam bath and water slide.

Also, a visit to the Alpine Spa & Leisure, or the Oasis Spa is worth recommending.
