Ski Western Canada
Cranbrook - Kimberly - Panorama - Invermere - Radium Hot Springs - Golden - Banff - Sunshine Village - Lake Louise - Fernie
Western Canada boasts some of the best skiing and ski conditions in the world (especially if you ask the locals). We take you on a ski tour, of ski mountains, selected for their terrain, scenery and snow, not the big promotion budget ski mountains. The guides love skiing, which means you will be infected by enthusiasm to ski more, better and in new ways! The only restriction is going to be how long each day can you ski.
The benefits of skiing in Western Canada can be summarized as:
- More skiing per day (no crowds or lift queues)
- Famous champagne snow (dry powder snow)
- Ski in ski out experience ( ski from your accommodation door on select mountains)
- Reliable snowfall.
