Skiing

Take the ski shuttle from your hotel to Panorama Mountain Resort, with nearly 3,000 acres of terrain across 4,000 vertical feet of fall line perfection. Situated in British Columbia's Purcell Mountains with views to the Rocky Mountains, Panorama Mountain Resort is perfect for many skiers with 75% of the runs suitable for beginners or intermediates. Think wide open groomers, winding down the fall-line from the summit right to the village base area. For the more adventurous, Taynton Bowl is a former heli-skiing area that is now within bounds, so the slopes are patrolled, avalanche controlled and no backcountry gear is needed. Be sure to warm up first as the 750 acre bowl is all black runs! The Ski Shuttle operates on Tuesdays and you’ll arrive right as the gondola opens so you can squeeze in as many runs as you

The Powder Express takes you straight from your hotel to Kicking Horse Mountain Resort, one of the most thrilling ski resorts in Canada. You’ll arrive right as the gondola opens so you can squeeze in as many runs as you like. With plenty of steep and deep powder, Kicking Horse offers heart-pumping vertical runs, steep chutes and wide-open bowls. Featuring abundant soft snow and high alpine terrain Kicking Horse has something for everyone. Wide open bowls and long, long groomed runs for cruising, steep chutes and tree runs for the more adventurous. There is almost always fresh powder to be found. Enjoy a spectacular lunch at the Eagle’s Eye – Canada’s highest restaurant. A great day ski trip from Banff and Lake Louise and not to be missed on your Rockies ski vacation.

Spend a day on an exhilarating backcountry ski experience in the majestic Purcell mountain ranges, located just outside Banff National Park.
