SKI BANFF, ALBERTA, CANADA - FEBRUARY 15 - 22, 2020Banff Big 3 ski trip

Base Price: $1,218*
Trip Leader: JOE GILBERT

Resort:
Banff is a lively town inspired by the surrounding rugged mountains.  It is uniquely located within Canada’s first national park home to three world-class ski resorts; Lake Louise, Sunshine Village and Mt. Norquay.  A skiers and snowboarders paradise offering light fluffy snow and the most stunningly scenic backdrop you’ll ever experience all equal a must-visit resort for snow lovers. The opportunities for non-skiers are endless hot-springs, snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, sleigh rides, dog sledding, and more.  The bustling streets of Banff are lined with top-class restaurants, bars, shops, and a vibrant range of arts galleries and museums. This is not an annual SCWDC ski trip, so now is your chance to Ski Big Three and take advantage of the favorable exchange rate as this will be one of our least expensive week-long trips.

Banff honors the IKON ski pass 

Mountain:
Sunshine Village, Lake Louise, and Mt. Norquay combine to boast a massive 7,748 acres of accessible skiing. 26 lifts transport you to the action with over 360 inches of dry, light, rocky mountain snow annually. The skiing ranges from gentle beginner runs, to rolling blue runs, all the way to extreme off-piste skiing. Don’t forget your camera as the scenery is spectacular. Sunshine consists of three sprawling mountains and is where you will find Delirium Dive named one of the top ten off-piste destinations in the world. Lake Louise, spread out over four mountains, is known for its variety of terrain, easy runs, long cruisers, glades, chutes, and some of the most exciting and wide-open bowls in the Canadian Rockies. Mt. Norquay is the closest to Banff and known as a locals’ gem and the training ground to Olympic and World Cup athletes. Head here for a late start or early finish leaving time to take in Banff. 

Lodging:
Caribou Lodge

SCWDC will be staying at The Banff Caribou Lodge and Spa, a short walk to the center of town.
