Alberta’s Canadian Rockies

Skiing in Alberta’s Canadian Rockies is as thrilling as the scenery is breathtaking. Lake Louise Ski Resort is renowned for its stunning views, making each run a picture-perfect moment. At Sunshine Village, you can “ski and sleep in a snow globe” with cozy slopeside accommodations that keep you close to the powder. For a flexible experience, Mount Norquay lets you ski by the hour, leaving you plenty of time to enjoy Banff’s shopping, spas, and renowned dining.

Alberta’s Rockies have even more to offer! Jasper’s Marmot Basin boasts vast powder-filled slopes, Nakiska in Canmore serves up family-friendly runs, and Castle Mountain in Pincher Creek is a must for snow-lovers. From epic ski runs to incredible après-ski vibes, skiing in Alberta’s Canadian Rockies delivers a winter experience that’s hard to top.
