BANFF & LAKE LOUISE VACATION GUIDE

Three iconic Canadian Rockies mountain resorts share one SkiBig3 Lift Ticket, 8,000 acres of skiing, 2 gondolas, 26 chairlifts and piles of legendary powder snow. Every kind of run imaginable, and some that simply aren’t.

Two historic ski towns offering everything from posh and pampered to retro and rustic. All surrounded by a vast, pristine and protected wilderness so breathtaking that it’s part of Canada’s first national park.

GETTING HERE IS EASY

The closest airport to Banff and Lake Louise is located in Calgary, Alberta. Frequent flights connect the Calgary International Airport (YYC) to many cities across Canada, US, UK, and the rest of the world.

From the airport, Banff is just a 90 minute drive along the all-weather, four-lane Trans-Canada Highway (Hwy #1) and Lake Louise is just a scenic 45 minutes further west.
