6 Reasons Why You Should Visit Lake Louise This November

Reason 1: Skiing Every Day is Encouraged

Whether you prefer the thrill of alpine skiing or the heart-pumping benefits of cross-country skiing, there are endless possibilities right outside of the resort. Get a head start on the ski season and enjoy our 120 kilometers of groomed cross-country trails and our complimentary shuttle to the Lake Louise Ski Resort. With the fresh snow and the excitement kicking in, be the first one in your crew to ski, or better yet, bring your friends along!

With our blue November skies and our twinkling snow, the picture-perfect spots are almost endless.

Located right in the heart of Banff National Park, our pristine location will make you wish you had brought more memory cards.
