  • The area offers some of the best, wide-open, above-the-tree-line skiing anywhere, and the combined Tri-Area lift pass offers access to Sunshine and Mount Norquay ski areas nearby. Immaculately groomed slopes, a backdrop of the Rockies and the lake all enhance the experience of skiing here. Lake Louise village itself is small but has a selection of restaurants and plenty of atmosphere! Three separate mountain faces offer 11 square miles of skiing, including one 5 mile cruise down Whitehorn Mountain. Due to the resort's policy of ensuring that every lift has an easy way down, novices can join the more experienced skiers on the slopes.
