Snowshoe Trips
Quote: Over the 5 full days we stayed in Lake Louise, we had several excellent snowshoe hiking experiences. We are not skilled back-country skiers, that ability would have extended our range quite a bit, but we found plenty to keep us busy. Let me... Read the full Lake Louise Ski Area review

Quote: I have visited twice during the last week in January, and on both occasions it has been snowing pretty hard and very cold (-20°C to -30°C). You need to wrap up very warmly for the lifts. When it's not snowing, the views are amazing. The ski... Read the full Lake Louise Ski Area review

  • December 30, 2004
Quote: The views are exceptional from the mountain, both down the valley and to the base area. There are plenty of runs below the tree line and a few above the tree line. There are three slopes to explore, all served by interconnecting lifts.

  • March 10, 2004
Quote: We had a beautiful sunny day, but no fresh snow, so the front side was a bit icy, but the back side was okay. The lines were short and the runs were long. There is a lodge at the base, one at the top, and one on the back side, so taking a break was... Read the full Lake Louise Ski Area review

Skiing at Lake Louise
Quote: Lake Louise is truly a world-class ski resort. This was the first mountain that I had ever skied and was a bit intimidated by the size. I hadn't skied in three years prior to skiing here and surprised by how steep some of the green runs were,... Read the full Lake Louise Ski Area review

Quote: We have seen this jewel of a lake, described in summer as water painted with a peacock feather, many times. It is gorgeous year-round. When we visited this time in mid-April, the lake was frozen so it appeared to be a perfect pale turquoise, set... Read the full Lake Louise Ski Area review
