Winter in the serene retreat of Lake Louise sees the creation of an atmospheric Ice Castle built from huge blocks of ice. Don your ice skates to practice your spins and axels against the impressive backdrop of the Victoria Glacier and snow-clad Rocky Mountains.
Photography lessons, snowshoeing, dog sledding and sightseeing tours allow discovery of the dramatic frozen scenery of the Banff National Park. Take a traditional horse-drawn sleigh ride with a glass of Piper Heidsiech Champagne or learn the basics of ice climbing with the use of ice axe and crampons on a private half day tour.
A Tri-Area lift pass covers Mount Norquay, Sunshine Village and Lake Louise Ski Resort allowing unlimited exploration. Lake Louise is the largest of the three with over 4,200 acres of skiing for all abilities – a good nursery area and gentle green slopes, long cruising intermediate runs and an irresistible array of steep challenges, moguls and remote off-piste. Almost all lifts here access a mix of green, blue and black pistes, perfect for skiing en famille or for mixed ability groups.
