The ski area covers nearly 320 hectares and is accessed via 3 quad chairlifts and several learners tows. Beginners can enjoy a series of groomed trails that take them to all areas of the mountain. There are plenty of perfect runs for intermediates especially off the Captains quad and the Whitestar Express chairlifts.

Advanced riders can get a kick out of finding lines through the Arcadia Chutes. Cardrona builds and maintains a whopping 4 halfpipes of different sizes as well as the Mother terrain park - a 1000 metre long run featuring rails, fun boxes, jumps and tables. The resort has a vertical drop of 390 metres and the longest run is 3.6km.
