Skiing holidays to
Banff Canada

Expert Opinion

"Banff is a bustling little town with a great atmosphere and friendly locals - a perfect base for your ski holiday. There are free shuttles to take you to the 3 ski areas - yes 3 ski areas valid with a single lift ticket! My favourite is Sunshine Village - the terrain includes wide open cruisers and the 'extreme' areas at Goat’s Eye. Experts have to try the off-piste Delirium Dive - although you'll need avalanche gear and a buddy (ask locally about this). Fantastic long ski season here too."

Ski Safaris:

Although it is perfectly possible to base yourself in Banff or Lake Louise and utilise the excellent shuttle services to access the ski area, we recommend having a hire vehicle for complete flexibility. This also enables you to get to some of the smaller resorts in the area such as Nakiska (built for the 1988 Winter Olympics) and Fortress. If you want to explore further afield why not incorporate a few days in Jasper, Kicking Horse or Panorama?
