5 Most Beautiful Places To Ski In Canada
With a healthy dose of fresh powder on the ground, ski season is upon us in full swing.
There’s something that feels quintessentially Canadian about strapping on your ski or snowboard boots and hitting the slopes. Not to mention warming up by the fire afterwards!
From coast to coast, there are plenty of hills to pick from. If jaw-dropping views are at the top of your list, take a look at the five most beautiful places to ski across the country.
5. Mont Tremblant Ski Resort: Mont-Tremblant, Que.
The only eastern ski resort to make the list, Mont Tremblant is a family-friendly resort with sweeping views of the surrounding Laurentians. The resort offers a variety of runs for beginners and seasoned skiers alike—though don’t expect the same challenging routes that Western Canada is laden with—making it a smooth, well-run experience for all visitors.
4. Revelstoke Mountain Resort: Revelstoke, B.C.
About a three-hour drive from Kelowna, B.C., Revelstoke is not for the faint of heart. Known for its deep snow and steep turns, it has a reputation as one of the most challenging mountains in the country. That said, there’s a reason why many ski movies have filmed on its snowy hills—the misty views are unlike any other.
3. Whistler Blackcomb: Whistler, B.C.
As one of the biggest and most celebrated ski resorts in the world, Whistler Blackcomb features a remarkable snowfall over vast terrain and a massive full-service resort. About two hours from Vancouver, the hills boast incredible terrains, mountain views, and no shortage of activities in the village. Be aware that the lines can be long and busy at peak season.
2. Panorama Mountain Resort: Panorama, B.C.
As the name suggests, Panorama Mountain Resort is known for its panoramic mountain views. About 20 minutes outside of Invermere, B.C., the resort is great for all ski abilities, from beginners to advanced riders seeking to tackle the backcountry bowl. Be sure to stop by the Summit Hut for a warm drink and soak in the almost 360-degree views.
1. Lake Louise Ski Resort
It wouldn’t be a ski resort roundup without the infamous Lake Louise. Not only is the quality of ski and terrain fantastic, its stunning hills run across 4,200 acres. The resort is enjoyable for amateurs and experts alike, with a solid mix of rugged terrain and long, groomed runs with beautiful views of the surrounding peaks.
