Located in the province of Alberta in Canada, Banff itself actually has no slopes. The name refers to Banff National Park, home to three resorts - Banff Sunshine, Lake Louise Ski Resort and Mt. Norquay. Combined, the three resorts boast nearly 8,000 acres of skiing, 2 gondolas, 26 chairlifts and 30 feet of feather-light, dry Canadian Rockies powder annually.
Boasting one of the longest ski seasons in North America from mid November until late May, Banff provides some of the best skiing in the world, with challenging terrain for all levels of skiers and snowboarders, as well as some of the most breathtaking views found anywhere in the world!
Calgary (140km), one hour and 30 minutes
Edmonton (393km), four to five hours
Kelowna (473km), five hours and 20 minutes

If you are after true Canadian cuisine, Banff is the place to find it!
The town may be small, but Banff has a thriving culinary scene with plenty of restaurants nestled among the spectacular peaks of the Rockies, serving all different types of food to suit all budgets.
The perfect paring for after a day spent on the slopes is a refreshing ice-cold beverage best enjoyed by a fire. Banff is not short of cosy, warm and inviting spots to unwind. With over 100 bars in the town you’ll be spoilt for choice, all of which are relatively close to one another – which essentially makes it easy to bar hop!
With the change of the seasons comes the change of attractions in Banff. Whether you want to horseback ride through an alpine meadow, explore the Bow River on a canoe, spend the day learning about the diverse landscapes and wildlife of Banff National Park or experience the thrill of seeing the Rocky Mountains from thousands of feet up on a helicopter tour, there really is something in Banff for everyone.
