  • Sunshine Village sits around 20 minutes outside of the resort town of Banff.

    The slopes offer something for everyone โ€“ from the steeps of Delirium Dive and Goatโ€™s Eye Mountain, to the gentle greens of Mt Standish and the high-altitude cruising of Lookout Mtn, the variety is impressive. Along with Lake Louise and Mt Norquay it forms part of the โ€œSki Big 3โ€, all of which are covered by the same lift pass and are linked by a bus service โ€“ although having a car will certainly help

    Pros and cons

    • Amazing snow record and great variety of slopes
    • Incredible views from the summit of Banff National Park
    • Banff is a great resort town, with plenty going on
    • Three ski areas set apart so bus rides or a car needed
    • Can get very cold and exposed โ€“ most chairlifts are uncovered
    • Wind can close upper lifts

    On the Slopes

    From the top of the access gondola, there is a great range of terrain to suit all abilities. For beginners, the slopes of Mt. Standish are perfect and there is good progression throughout the area โ€“ especially to the sheltered runs served by the Wolverine Quad. Intermediates will love the long runs served by the Continental Divide quad and the new Tee Pee Town Express โ€“ the only chair in the resort with covers and heated seats.

    Advanced skiers and boarders should head up Goats Eye Mountain, from which a great selection of tough slopes drops from the summit. The jewel in the resortโ€™s crown however is Delirium Dive, a seriously steep off piste zone within the ski area boundary, but special restrictions apply (you must have a buddy and carry avalanche gear) and you must enter through gates.

    Banff - Sunshine Village Resort

    Thereโ€™s limited on hill accommodation in the form of the ski-in-ski-out Eagles Nest and Sunshine Mountain Lodge, but weโ€™d thoroughly recommend staying in Banff. It has a fantastic selection of bars, restaurants and things to do โ€“ and because it is mostly a summer resort, there is lots of good value accommodation during the winter months.
    Up on the hill there is a decent aprรจs bar in the form of Trappers, but the action really is back in town. Look out for special daily happy hours, which donโ€™t only cover drinks but food as well.

    Getting to Banff – Sunshine Village

    Direct flights to Calgary airport are by far the best option. Banff is around 75 minutes away by car, or an hour and a half via a bus.
    • Calgary airport: 1.25 โ€“ 2 hours (driving)
