3) You don't need a car

If you’d rather leave the driving to someone else once you’re in Banff & Lake Louise - you’re in luck!

Each of the three ski resorts offer ski shuttle service from Banff hotels to the slopes. Each shuttle offers a variety of pick-up and drop-off locations, so you’ll never be more than a few steps away from a ride. The best part: Shuttle transportation is included with your SkiBig3 Lift Ticket!

Once you’re finished shredding the slopes, you can take advantage of Banff's “ROAM” — Canada’s first all-hybrid electric community bus service. The public transit system covers much of the townsite of Banff for only $2 per Adult.  Check with your hotel - ROAM tickets are often included complimentary with your accommodations.

Staying in Lake Louise? You're only 5-10 minutes from the lifts of the Lake Louise Ski Resort, so jump on board your hotel shuttle and be at the mountain before you've finished your first cup of coffee. Lake Louise visitors can mix it up by grabbing a scheduled ski shuttle to Banff Sunshine Village - check the schedule with your concierge as dates are subject to change.
