7 Reasons why a Mountain Collective pass in Canada just makes sense

Whether you want to ski as many resorts as possible, or you just want to make your money go further, the Mountain Collective pass in Canada has a strong reputation for good reason. It’s a smart choice for skiers and snowboarders anywhere in North America, but in Banff National Park, the perks are going even further.

In short: the Mountain Collective pass gets you 2 days at 24 different dream destinations, for a total of 48 days of skiing and riding, including 4 days in Banff National Park. Two days at Banff Sunshine, two days at Lake Louise Ski Resort, and 50% off additional days including Mt. Norquay.

Nice deal, right? You can learn more about how to buy a Mountain Collective pass or keep reading for more details on why this pass makes great sense when skiing in Banff National Park.

1. Double your ski days

While most Mountain Collective destinations just get 2 days, in Banff National Park you get 4 days of skiing and riding – 2 at Banff Sunshine and 2 at Lake Louse Ski Resort. Plus, you can have additional ski days at all three resorts in the park, including Mt. Norquay. Cost is charged at 50% off the one-day SkiBig3 window rate.

2. Lower pass prices pre-season

Early birds really do get the worm with Mountain Collective pass in Canada. When you buy your Mountain Collective pass early, you can lock in unbeatable pre-season rates that can take the cost of skiing and riding at each destination resort to less than $100 a day.

3. Get your money’s worth in just a few days

The Mountain Collective pass gets you a huge 48 ski days, across 24 ski resorts, over 5 continents. With five resorts located in close proximity: Banff Sunshine, Lake Louise Ski Resort, Panorama, Marmot Basin and Revelstoke – it’s easy to do a Western Canadian Road Trip to knock off 5 resorts at once!

Realistically, it’s unlikely for most people to ski all of the 24 member resorts in one season. However, the beauty of the pass is that it’s easy to maximize its value. If you get pre-season pricing, you’ll get your money’s worth after skiing just 4 or 5 days in Banff National Park. Tag on a trip to Revelstoke, Panorama or Marmot Basin and you’re in the clear.

4. Get 50% off additional ski days

There’s a lot to explore at Banff Sunshine and Lake Louise Ski Resort – you can pack a lot into your four days of skiing in Banff National Park! If you decide that 4 days is just not enough, your pass also gets you 50% off additional ski days at either resort. This discount also includes 50% off (the SkiBig3 Lift Ticket rate) at Mt. Norquay!
