“The mountains shall bring peace to the people.”
Rossland is a special place. The area’s incredible amenities have attracted an eclectic mix of people from around the world, all who live and play in our mountains. Rossland is still a community the way people remember… helpful & friendly neighbours, spirited community events and frequent backyard gatherings of friends.
Seven and a half hours east of Vancouver and a snowball’s throw from the Canada-U.S. border rests one of the most fabled ski towns in the Great White North: Rossland, BC. The town, which originated as a hustling and bustling mining utopia during the gold rush, boasts about as much character as you could ask for in a mountain setting, with an eclectic mix of friendly locals, historic 1800’s-style buildings, and gingerbread ski chalets resting comfortably on steep slopes.
