Talisman boasts Southern Ontario's second highest vertical for a public resort at 600 feet. The ski hills are serviced by six ski lifts and feature 18 varied runs, enviable snowmaking capabilities, and two state of the art terrain parks. Whether you are a veteran skier, snow boarder, or romancing the snow for the first time, Talisman will satisfy your need for winter activity. Our beginner ski area offers the perfect atmosphere for developing skills in a relaxed, low- pressure environment, and our intermediate and expert ski runs will challenge your stamina.

We offer plenty of alternative adventures including snowshoeing, cross-country skiing or swimming in our heated salt water pool. Alternatively, you may just want to relax in our outdoor hot tubs or indulge in a spa service.
