Introducing Fernie

Surrounded by mountains on four sides – that’s the sheer Lizard Range you see looking west – Fernie defines cool. Once devoted solely to lumber and coal, the town has used its sensational setting to branch out. Skiers love the over 800cm of dry powder that annually hits the runs easily seen from town. In summer this same dramatic setting lures scores of hikers and mountain bikers. But despite the town’s discovery by pleasure-seekers, it still retains a down-to-earth vibe, best felt in the cafés, bars, shops and galleries of the historic center.
