Lake Louise Mountain Resort is a “Giant” of Canadian skiing.
With over 4,200 acres of terrain spread over four mountain faces, Louise
offers unparalleled skiing and riding in an unsurpassed setting.
Lake Louise’s uniquely beautiful terrain is both vast and varied.
The exceptional layout allows families and groups of varying abilities
to ski together; there are beginner, intermediate and expert runs down
from every chair. Beginner and intermediate skiers have access to an
abundance of gentle slopes and long cruising runs. Experts can explore
endless chutes, glades, gullies and remote bowls on some of the most
challenging terrain in the Rockies.
Nine interconnecting lifts let skiers and riders easily explore all that
Louise has to offer. Dependable snow conditions from early November
until late May are why Lake Louise hosts the first Men’s and Women’s
World Cup Races of the year. Abundant natural snow is enhanced by Canada’s
largest snowmaking system.
Come and enjoy Canada’s largest single ski area.
