Calabogie Peaks

Nature
Calabogie Peaks, on Dicksons Mountain in the Calabogie community west of Ottawa, began as a ski area in 1969 and developed into a four-season resort while remaining defined by skiing. It is distinguished by the highest vertical drop among Ontario’s public ski hills, at 238 metres, and by Ontario’s longest beginner trail. The hill includes terrain for beginners, intermediates, and experts, with 24 trails recorded in 2022. Major growth came in 1986 with expanded slopes, accommodations, a lodge, a beachfront, and a 9-hole golf course, followed by later lift, hotel, and snowmaking improvements. Still owned by the Murphy family, it now supports recreation and events year-round.
