BEST SKI RESORTS IN CANADA

EXPERIENCE OUR TOP SKI HILLS

It’s snow joke: Canada is home to some of the world’s best ski resorts. Read on to decide at which ski resort you’ll enjoy the ultimate winter adventure: Banff, Lake Louise, Whistler, Sun Peaks, Big White, Le Massif de Charlevoix or Mont-Tremblant.

WESTERN CANADA

SKI NEAR CALGARY: BANFF & LAKE LOUISE

Banff

Looking for the ultimate winter adventure? Imagine skiing the Canadian Rockies!

Fly to Calgary and conquer the craggy peaks around Banff and Lake Louise. The ski resorts and hotels here offer access to three incredible, world-class ski hills (Mount Norquay, Lake Louise and Sunshine Village) with the SkiBig3 ticket.

The closest to Banff, Mount Norquay serves up sweeping village views and all-level terrains ideal for families. Lake Louise ranks as one of North America’s largest ski resorts and should be up there on any Canadian skier’s bucket list with its variety of runs cutting through breathtaking natural marvels. Aim higher over at Sunshine Village where the area’s highest ski hill (at 2,730 metres above sea level) dominates the Continental Divide.

SKI NEAR VANCOUVER: WHISTLER

Whistler

Go big or go home, they say… maybe in reference to Canada’s largest ski resort? Welcome to Whistler Blackcomb, home to some of the best skiing in Canada!

Visiting Whistler is like stepping into a holiday-card version of winter, complete with two mountains linked by a gondola and a fairy tale village. Buckle up for sprawling, snowy acres of gentle slopes, alpine bowls, glaciers, marked trails, and more! 
 

SKI NEAR KAMLOOPS: SUN PEAKS

Ski Sun Peaks

Beautiful British Columbia also harbours our country’s second largest ski resort: Sun Peaks, near Kamloops, where you’ll find incredible skiable terrain spread out across three mountains.

With its European-inspired village, perfectly light powder snow and range of runs (from beginner greens to double black diamonds), you can ski most places here; the village features ski-through streets and hotels offer ski-in/ski-out options. For a ski break, look to a panoply of activities, from dog-sledding to horse-drawn sleigh rides and taking in some TLC at the spa.

Kelowna

SKI NEAR KELOWNA: BIG WHITE SKI RESORT

Nicknamed “Canada’s Favourite Family Resort”, Big White near Kelowna welcomes skiers of all ages. 118 alpine trails guarantee downhill thrills across a skiable terrain of almost 2,8000 acres. Cross-country skiers are also catered to with 25 kilometres of Nordic trails.

After a day out on the slopes, ski straight to the heart of a picturesque, pedestrian village for some much-earned après-ski surrounded by the beauty of the Monashee Mountains.

EASTERN CANADA

SKI NEAR MONTREAL: MONT-TREMBLANT

Mont Tremblant Ski

A breathtaking winter wonderland just under two hours away from Montreal, Mont-Tremblant delivers colourful village vibes nestled amid the dreamy snowy scenery of Quebec’s Laurentians region.

Recognized as the leading ski resort of eastern North America, Mont-Tremblant treats skiers or snowboarders to hundreds of trails tailored for all levels. End your days in the cobbled streets of the picturesque pedestrian village where a legendary après-ski scene warms up winter nights.

SKI NEAR QUEBEC CITY: LE MASSIF DE CHARLEVOIX

Le Massif de Charlevoix ski

Quebec’s other top ski resort is none other than Le Massif de Charlevoix, where winter enthusiasts can enjoy the biggest vertical drop east of the Canadian Rockies.

Le Massif’s runs face the St. Lawrence River, giving skiers the impression of plunging right into its waters. It’s also the only ski resort that you can access from the bottom of the mountain or from the top, considering you can actually drive right up to the summit! Plus, the resort’s northern locale near Quebec City benefits from an abundance of natural snowfall blessing acres of variable ski terrain and even a section reserved for adventurous off-piste skiing.
