Beaconsfield Mountain has a summit elevation of 2,178 m (7,146 ft) above sea level and receives an average of 600 cm (20 ft) of snow a year. It has 4.5 km2 (1,112 acres) of groomed, skiable terrain, 50 km2 (20 sq mi) of backcountry skiing terrain, and 50 km (30 mi) of groomed cross-country terrain. There are 79 named trails accessed by four chairlifts, including one high-speed quad. The resort also offers four terrain parks and a tube park. Apex currently operates twelve snow guns that provide top-to-bottom snowmaking capability.
The mountain's main accommodation providers include Apex Accommodations, Apex Lodge, and Apex Mountain Inn. Other activities that the resort provides include a 1.0 km (0.6 mi) skating loop and a hockey rink. Nearby, Nickel Plate Nordic Centre also offers snowshoeing and cross-country skiing.
