Big White (BC) — primary gateway Kelowna (YLW), ~55 km/34 mi SE via BC-33 then Big White Rd. Final ~24 km climb is steep and snowy; winter tires legally required in BC (Oct 1–Apr 30). True ski-in/ski-out village on top, so most guests park once. Costs are CAD-equivalent.

Ground Transport

Rental Car Major companies (YLW)~$70

Winter/M+S tires legally required on Big White Rd; AWD strongly recommended. Village parking then walk/ski.

Shuttle Big White Airport Shuttle (Silver Star Shuttle/Big White)~$70

Scheduled YLW ↔ Big White resort shuttle; reserve online. Good for a car-free village stay.

Long-haul alternative from Vancouver via BC-5 (Coquihalla, high mountain pass — winter closures possible) to Kelowna then up. Usually only worth it for cheaper international routing into YVR.

Ground Transport

Rental Car Major companies (YVR)~$80

Coquihalla is a serious winter pass; winter tires required, check DriveBC before departing.
