Overview
Overview
Panorama is magic — a place where the wild mountain spirit meets warm, welcoming locals. It’s not just about skiing and riding (though there’s plenty of that). There’s heaps of adventure waiting, from cruising the groomers and charging through bowls, to trying out fat biking or relaxing in the village after a big day. It’s a genuine mountain village – friendly, fun, and full of moments you’ll want to relive.
On the slopes, you can cruise endless corduroy groomers, watch the next Olympians blast down race courses, or tackle Taynton Bowl — a powder-filled playground with over 750 acres of former heli-skiing terrain. Feeling brave? Drop into the Extreme Dream Zone and test your skills weaving through tight trees.
Panorama is one of the easiest mountain resort vacations you’ll ever experience. Simply check in, ditch your bags and step out onto the mountain. The intimate village has a great variety of restaurants, pubs, cafés and a choice of retail therapy. There is also free access to the hot pools for all resort guests, an on-mountain massage and spa, plus a calendar packed full of events and activities. Panorama’s a family-friendly spot packed with activities for everyone, plus plenty of fun après options to wind down after a big day.
