Corporate Responsibility at Boler

At Boler Mountain, we are committed to the growth and sustainability of the land we operate on, taking care of the people we employ and guests we serve while supporting the community we belong to.

Boler Mountain has signed the Sustainable Tourism 2030 Pledge to demonstrate our commitment to improving the sustainability performance of our business between now and 2030.

The UN World Tourism Organization defines sustainable tourism as “tourism that takes full account of its current and future economic, social and environmental impacts, addressing the needs of visitors, the industry, the environment and host communities.”

We are currently undergoing a comprehensive assessment with GreenStep in order to become a sustainable tourism certified business, focusing on reducing waste, conserving energy and resources and further supporting and promoting initiatives within the community we serve.

Our goal, as a custodian of the local environment in which we operate, is to become a flagship not for profit organization for sustainable tourism in Southwestern Ontario.
