Despite it's small size compared to Sunshine Village and Lake Louise it still manages to offer varied terrain.

Featuring great runs for beginners and families the resort remains a historic destination for alpine ski racing. The slopes overlook the town of Banff and can be the place to go on a powder day when others flock to the bigger ski areas instead. Famously big bumps can be found off the North American chair and this is also a good place for early season skiing – with 85% snowmaking coverage across the area’s 60 marked trails.

The resort is only a few minutes drive from Banff itself, one of the liveliest and best ski towns in North America. There’s a big seasonnaire crowd and numerous bars and restaurants (be sure to check out the various Happy Hour offers), making this a seriously fun resort after dark. Add to this the easy access to the other two ski areas outside of Banff, the spectacular scenery and the easy access from Calgary (the transfer takes around 2 hours), and it is clear why Banff is such a popular destination.

Snow Overview

Canada

Updated 01/04

A cool start to the week brings with it generally dry conditions, with a few flurries of snowfall over the Rockies. The week then turns mild and sunny as it proceeds and nears its conclusion, with a brief, cool flash expected over the weekend.

Over the St Lawrence, a bitterly cold opening to the week turns mild quickly, with snow on Wednesday evening preceding mild conditions and rain from Thursday onwards. More settled weather – albeit mild – concludes the week and opens the weekend.
