Lake Louise is located 55 km (35 miles) west of Banff [or 183 km (114 miles) west of Calgary] and is very easily accessed by the No. 1 TransCanada Highway. (to see the area please view my photo album: http://community.webshots.com/album/27167170MuFeIyJYaq )

This is Canada's largest skiing area in the Rockies. This massive skiing area is spread over four mountains that will challenge your skiing skills. Here you can ski over 60 miles of ski trails. Many fast ski lifts will whisk you up to the top of 10 000-foot mountains. Every chair has an easy way down allowing beginners to ski the whole area! New modern facilities include: three mountain lodges; a complete ski shop with rental equipment; and a new day lodge which offers comfortable rest and meals between the runs. Free bus shuttles skiers from the Lake Louise hotels to the hill in minutes. Skiing season begins here in late November and lasts till the middle of May. Because the skiing area is at a low elevation expect the snow to melt in the first days of April and it is very hard on your legs. Many ski runs are covered by man made snow and this snow in the spring creates a feeling of slowing down your perfect run?.

Very modern and constantly improved facilities. Many fast ski lifts will whisk you up to the top of 10 000-foot mountains. Every chair has an easy way down allowing beginners to ski the whole area! All runs are professionally GROOMED AND PREPARED for the next ski day.

Many cross-country and back country ski trails are in the area and are very well maintained. This ski area is constantly under the watchful eyes of ski patrollers.
