 Nestled in the heart of the Canadian Rocky Mountains, Banff-Lake
Louise-Sunshine promises memorable skiing and snowboarding amidst the
world's most awesome scenery. Within the protected wilderness of Banff
National Park, you'll find three ski areas and two mountain towns
alive with spirit and hospitality (Banff and Lake Louise) - all just 90
minutes from Calgary International Airport.
The
3 ski areas of Ski
Norquay, Sunshine
Village, Lake
Louise Mountain Resort feature more than 250 runs on over 7,700
acres of skiable terrain. Each has a unique character and the three are
available on one convenient interchangeable
lift ticket.
Since skiing began here in 1926, Banff-Lake Louise-Sunshine has been
renowned for it's annual abundance of light, dry Canadian Rockies
powder. Our northern location and resort elevation gives us some of the
most consistent and ample snowfall in all of western North America and
one of the longest ski seasons in the west, from mid-November to late
May. |

After skiing
& snowboarding, or for those taking time off the slopes, there's
plenty to see and do. Have a relaxing soak in the Banff Upper Hot
Springs, visit museums (including the Canadian Ski Museum), ride the
Banff gondola for incredible views, take a day trip heli-skiing, explore
the National Park, try an ice canyon walk, pamper yourself with a spa
visit, explore Banff Avenues many shops, experience snowshoeing, cross
country skiing, ice skating, dog sledding and horse-drawn sleigh rides,
and much more. And of course, there's the wildlife - you might even spot
an elk or a bighorn sheep during your adventures! |
