Lake Louise Ski Resort, Ski resort in Banff National Park, Canada
Lake Louise Ski Resort is a ski area in Banff National Park spread across four mountain faces with approximately 145 marked trails. The terrain offers runs for all skill levels, from gentle slopes to challenging pitches for advanced skiers.
Skiing activities began in the 1920s as a gateway to Skoki Ski Lodge, with the first ski lift constructed in 1954. The infrastructure gradually developed, transforming the area into an organized ski destination.
The resort hosts the FIS Alpine Ski World Cup, Canada's sole stop on this international circuit, drawing athletes and spectators worldwide for downhill and super-G races. These events shape how the place is known and used by the global skiing community.
The terrain is served by nine lifts that can carry a substantial number of skiers hourly. Multiple day lodges throughout the area provide shelter and food during your day on the mountain.
The skiing terrain extends across the southern slopes of the Slate Range, primarily on Whitehorn Mountain. The vertical drop between the highest and lowest points spans approximately 3,250 feet (990 meters).
