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, we
offer three ski areas and two towns (Banff and Lake Louise),
just 1 ½ hours from Calgary International Airport.
The 3 ski areas of Ski Banff @ Norquay, Sunshine Village,
Lake Louise feature more than 240 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 which includes frequent and worry-free shuttle transportation between
the hotels and each ski area.
World famous dry (lower moisture content
for the scientific description) Canadian Rockies powder is
available for one of the longest, most consistent ski/snowboard
seasons in the world with opening in early November and operations
until late in May each year.
Over 35 options for lodging (plus over
15 Bed & Breakfasts) and over 120 varied dining choices
offer a range of services unique among the world's ski resorts.
More than 200 shops provide for the ultimate shopping experience.
After skiing & snowboarding, or for
those taking time off the slopes; try other activities and
attractions like the natural hot springs, visit museums (including
the Canadian Ski Museum), experience snowshoeing, cross country
skiing, dog sledding, horse-drawn sleigh rides, a sightseeing
gondola, heli-skiing, ice skating, spas, and much more. And
of course - wildlife watching; you might even spot an elk
or a bighorn sheep during your adventures! |
