instructor course provider with the ability to instruct at all three of the Banff ski areas. You’ll have a massive 7,558 acres of ski area to train and play
in, making our programme offer more variety than any other available.

has to offer. Grant oversees the running of our programmes and will be not only a great source of local knowledge but a support when you need

THE MOUNTAINS
LAKE LOUISE : Lake Louise is world renowned for its extensive skiing, dry powder, modern
services, and stunning scenery. The vast ski area is spread over four mountain faces to give a
massive 4,200 acres of trails and pistes. The wide, well manicured pistes and the challenging
opportunities off piste make it a resort for everyone. Louise has one of the largest terrain parks
in North America including a competition-standard super-pipe.
SUNSHINE : Sunshine is renowned for having some of Canada’s best and most reliable snow
conditions. So good in fact that there’s no need for snow making! On average Sunshine
receives a staggering 33ft of the white stuff a year! The resort has a huge range of terrain from
wide groomed pistes to the recently opened ‘Delirium Dive’, an awesome double-black extreme
ski/snowboard area that will push experienced skiers and riders to the limit.
NORQUAY : Located just outside Banff, Norquay is the smallest of the three resorts but offers
a wide variety of terrain, including challenging lines on some steep pitches. It is a quieter
and more laid-back resort and when it snows this is one of the best places to get fresh tracks
without long lift lines. Norquay has a well-maintained half pipe and terrain park as well as
weekly night skiing.
