Paradise found awaits at Silver Star

Located a short 20-minute drive from Vernon, the resort boasts some of the Okanagan’s most stunning, and accessible scenic views. The hiking season opens June 29 as the Summit Chairlift runs from noon until 4 p.m. every Friday, Saturday and Sunday until September 9. Hikers can also access the Comet

Express Six-Pack which runs daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p/m/ The hike to the Comet takes about 20 minutes before being able to make it to the summit. Unlike the Summit Chairlift ride, hikers cannot ride the chair back down. That’s hardly a worry as Silver Star’s stunning views of the Monashee mountains, mixed

with its wide array of wildflowers and wildlife are a photographers dream come true. For those looking for some insight into their surroundings, a guided tour with Outdoor Discoveries, let by awardwinning naturalist Roseanne Van Ee, is a definite must. Outdoor discoveries offers a range of tours from Informative Bears and Berries to the Ghosts of Silver Star. For bookings contact Van Ee at 250-545-7446 or online at outdoordiscoveries.com Many guests simply enjoy a quick stroll through the village. Whether it’s lunch at The Saloon or a beer on the patio of the Bulldog, Silver Star’s quaint Victorian village is always a relaxing atmosphere. Perhaps the most unique way to

discover the mountain is on horseback. Guests can saddle-up and ride through the forest on a guided tour. The resort even boasts custom tours with meals prepared for groups at the Wild Horseman’s Cabin. For more information on tickets, or to book tours, visit the Ski Dazzle summer ticket office, located in the heart of the village or by calling 250-558-6023 or email tickets@skisilverstar.com
