Blue Mountain is an alpine ski resort situated on a section of the Niagara Escarpment about 1 km away from Georgian Bay, just northwest of Collingwood, Ontario. It is a major destination for skiers from the Toronto area, and sells on average more than 750,000 lift tickets per year, making it the third-busiest ski resort in Canada after Whistler-Blackcomb and Mont Tremblant. It is one of the largest resorts in Ontario and has been extensively built out, featuring 34 runs, 13 chairlifts and 5 freestyle terrains. Majority owned by Intrawest since 1999, the resort has recently undergone major renovations, including new high-speed lifts and a new "village" similar to those built at Tremblant and Whistler at its base.

A gorgeous town in Canada that neighbors Blue Mountains and lake. The mountains are great for beginners to expert skiers/ snowboarders in winter, and in summer are used for mountain bike riders although warning this is not for the faint of heart. In winter the lake is frozen over but in summer water activities eg. sailing ect. take place

This is easily the best ski destination close to Toronto...only a few hours away. It is a year round destination too and offers fun hiking and biking in the summer. Be sure to check it out if you want a resort type experience (lots of nice places to stay) while enjoying the outdoors.

A great ski/snowboard resort accessible for a day trip from Toronto. In the summer there are bike trails, hiking, golf and swimming. A nice weekend getaway any time of the year.
