Forecast today: Occasional snow
- Max temp: -1 °c
- Min temp: -3.4 °c
As host resort for the ski racing programme during the 1988 Calgary Olympics, Nakiska gained worldwide notoriety and it was constructed out of nothing specifically to host the huge event.
The Downhill was won by the legendary Pirmin Zurbriggen of Switzerland and Alberto Tomba took gold in both the GS and Slalom. Parts of the track are still in use today as a high performance training centre for the Canadian team, but don’t be put off if you’re a hardcore racer – much of the terrain is pretty mellow and well-groomed, rolling pistes are the order of the day. That being said, the Monster Glades are popular after fresh snow and there are some good blacks off the summit.
Reflecting the resort’s place as a weekend or daytrip destination, there’s no accommodation on the hill and you’ll need to stay down the valley. A good plan is to perhaps stop off here for a day of skiing on the way inland to Banff.

Snow Overview
Canada
Updated 17/03
Rain and mild conditions dominate across the Coastals, BC Interior and Rockies through this week and into the weekend; this will change abruptly as temperatures take a long walk off a short pier and this precipitation rapidly changes to snow – lots of it in the Coastals, with up to 40cm expected down.
Much of this will blow itself out before it hits the Interior, with the Rockies seeing a few flurries moving in off the Plains.
Over the St Lawrence, things start cold before improving as snowy weather moves in, bringing steady, consistent snowfall for the end of this week and into the weekend.
