 Location & Map

Location

The Raven is a short walk away from the Happy Valley Adventure area and Lodge. Happy Valley is a perfect location, it's lots of fun and central offering many non-skiing activities including the huge outdoor Skating rink, Mega Coaster tube rides and Cross Country Trails. The Raven is a short walk to the Gondola which will take you (in just 5 minutes) to the village where you'll find many restaurants, the kids centre and the ski/board school and grocery store.

Ski-in, Ski-out - There is direct Ski-in access to The Raven.  Ski-out simply requires leaving the building entrance and a short walk across the road or a walk downhill to the Gondola depending on snow coverage.
 

On a good day you can put your skis on as soon as you have left The Raven entrance and crossed over the road.
