With exactly one month to go before Revelstoke Mountain Resort opens for the 2025-26 ski season, the resort is celebrating being globally recognized as The Best Ski Resort for Powder in the World. Further, RMR was ranked in the top three in several global and North American categories through the 2025 Snomad Ski Resort Awards. The awards are determined by tens of thousands of skiers and snowboarders from around the world.
“These awards tell us what so many skiers already know, Revelstoke Mountain Resort is a place that is world-class, unique and spectacular,” says Ryan Melnyk, VP, Commercial Strategy & Marketing with RMR. “Beyond a broad range of terrain unlike anywhere else, we are graced with an average of 34 feet of snow each year, creating that light, champagne powder skiing and riding experience that people travel from all around the world to enjoy.”
Along with taking gold for Best Powder, RMR placed in the top three for Best Overall Ski Resort in the world, cementing RMR’s reputation as one of the world’s best destinations for fresh snow, unforgettable runs, and picturesque mountain views. RMR was voted in the top three across a total of 14 global and North American categories according to Snomad.
The Snomad Ski Resort Awards are based on more than 220,000 verified ratings from an international community of skiers and snowboarders who evaluate resorts across 20 categories, including snow quality, terrain variety and guest experience. Winners are chosen entirely by rider reviews, making the results a genuine reflection of what real skiers and snowboarders value most.
“Revelstoke has a certain appeal that draws people back again and again,” said Melnyk. “Mount Mackenzie delivers the kind of terrain and snowfall that is unlike anywhere else. It’s a big mountain skiing experience with an authentic small-town mountain charm, and that combination is really attractive to skiers and riders of all levels.”
Located in the Selkirk Range of British Columbia’s interior, RMR offers North America’s longest vertical descent at 5,620 feet of lift-accessible terrain and an average annual snowfall of more than 10 metres. The resort’s terrain spans across four high-alpine bowls, endless gladed forests, and incredible groomed cruisers, creating one of the most dynamic ski experiences on the planet.
