Straddling the Continental Divide in the Canadian Rockies, Banff Sunshine Village is a mountain paradise for skiers and riders. The resort, a 15 -minute drive from the Banff townsite, boasts Canada’s first heated chairlift (Teepee Town LX) and convenient ski -in/ski -out accommodation. Given the 9 metres (30 feet) of annual snowfall, it’s no wonder Sunshine has Canada’s longest non -glacial ski season from November to late -May. Skills progression is the name of the game in this alpine playground, with 137 runs and 12 lifts fanning out over 3,000 acres (1,200 hectares). Beginners and intermediates will discover secret powder stashes, a terrain park and fresh corduroy. Big mountain chargers can test their metal in expert -only freeride zones like the famed Delirium Dive, traversing through chutes, steeps and bowls. Feel the power of nature with every turn as the jaw -dropping vistas of Banff National Park unfold.
Whistler Village is the beating heart of a social community where locals bring their up-for-anything attitude to every shop, restaurant and gathering place – its energy is palpable.
There’s always something on the go with a non-stop lineup of events, festivals and races in Whistler. From annual signature events such as the Whistler Pride and Ski Festival in January, or the Invictus games in February to grass-roots community happenings there’s something for everyone, any day of the week.
