Silver Star's Adventure Park has a lift-served Tubetown, skating pond, Mini-Z snowmobile park for kids, horse-drawn sleigh rides, snowmobile tours and snowshoe excursions.

Via Snowmobile Safaris, you can tour the resort perimeter on a snowmobile by cruising down Silver Woods, around Putnam Creek, and then back to the summit of Vance Creek. The machines are 2007 Arctic Cat Panther 660 Touring sleds with smokeless, quiet four-stroke engines. For juniors ages 7-12, there is a specially built motocross style course for scaled down 2007 Arctic Cat AC 120s. Advanced bookings must be made through the Information Desk: Phone: (250) 558-6019.

The National Altitude Training Center has a climbing wall (lessons available), wax rooms and a fitness center. On Thursday nights in the auditorium, the locals and staff put on an extravaganza of music, comedy and entertainment called Silver Star Snow Show—don't miss it!

Guided snowmobile tours are available. You can also take a ride through the village in a horse-drawn carriage. For shopping, the village has a liquor store, ski & snowboard shop, clothing & gifts shop and a grocery store.
