Lake Louise, in the heart of the Canadian Rockies and the Banff National Park, has it all. Days can be spent gliding down runs for all levels or getting maximum park time, taking on jumps, rails and boxes. There are also so many trees, offering amazing tree runs, shelter on snowy days and great photo opportunities as it is so pretty! Winning awards such as the Canada’s best ski resort and placing top 3 in World’s Best Ski resort and World’s Best Freestyle Resort in the 2017 World Ski Awards, Lake Louise is a must for all riders.
Sunshine Village
As you reach the top of the gondola and see the main resort bowl open up in front of you, it is easy to see why “sunshine” features in the resort name! A bright and open resort, where you can ski in both Alberta and British Columbia since it is right on the state line! 3 mountains, 3,300 acres of skiable terrain and endless fun in the great snow conditions they have each year. Sunshine Village is also home to Delirium Dive – one of the top 10 off-piste destinations in the world. If you favour parks to back country then this resort hosts a massive 12 acre park with more than 50 features.
