Visitors staying in Banff have to choose between three possibilities every morning - to ski Norquay, Sunshine or Lake Louise. The three fixed lift ski areas together offer 6,000 acres and 200 plus trails offering skiers and snowboarders of any ability countless challenges. From wide-open bowls and tree-lined glades covered with fresh, dry powder, to meticulous groomed slopes and state-of-the-art snowmaking. Skiers and snowboarders can easily visit each ski area during their stay and then settle at the mountain that suits their style or choose a heli-ski excursion to find the truly untracked snow. Sunshine is the oldest ski area, established in 1928 but has been expanding rapidly in recent years with seven new high speed quads. After a short ride from Banff, skiers hop on the world's fastest eight-passenger gondola ride to stunning upper alpine terrain with wide-open bowls and tree runs carved through the forest. The resort has terrain to suit all abilities. For advanced skiers and snowboarders the Delirium Drive, the ultimate front country adventure with pitches of over 40 degrees and vertical footage of 1919 feet. Delirium will be located on the north face of Lookout Mountain. Sunshine Village also offers the only on-mountain accommodation in Banff National Park and services including pubs, lounges, dining, live entertainment and day care. The world's fastest high-speed quads dominate the three different mountain faces available to skiers. With close to 30 feet of snow each year and the longest season in the Rockies, Sunshine Village's 100 per cent natural snow is generally regarded as some of the world's best.
