Panorama Mountain Village is a ski and golf resort located deep within the Purcell Mountains of British Columbia, Canada. It is a popular tourist destination known for its spectacular rolling cliffs and spectacular view of the mountains. It is owned by Intrawest, developers of many of the larger ski resorts in North America.

The ski resort is one of the larger ones in North America, with 2,847 acres of skiable lift-served terrain. This places it somewhere in the top ten in terms of area. It also has one of the largest vertical drops in North American, at 3,820 ft (1,200 m). Their marketing material claims this is 4,000 ft (1,200 m), but this is a "rounded up" figure. In terms of continuously skiable vertical drop, it is third behind Whistler-Blackcomb, Jackson Hole and Kicking Horse.

Also at the bottom of the ski hill there is the Beckie Scott Nordic Center, named for Canadian Olympic gold-medal skier Beckie Scott, which has an extensive range of trails for all levels of difficulty. With approximately 20.5 km of trail for classic and skating and 6.6 km for Classic only. At the center of the Nordic center there is the Hale Hut, which sells a most needed cup of hot chocolate.

It is also home to Greywolf golf course, which winds along the Toby Creek Canyon.

The only way to access Panorama is via a road from the town of Invermere, located approximately 18 kilometers away.
