Best time to ski in Banff

Grab your skis and hit the slopes in Banff from November to the end of May. The sweet spot is from Late February to early March. But, thanks to its location on the Continental Divide, you can drop in on super soft powder until the end of April. Snow good! For an extra-special ski trip, join in with lively celebrations at Christmas. Or set off the New Year with dazzling fireworks displays. Travelling in January? The resort comes alive with snow sculptures, skijoring shows, and family play zones during the Banff SnowDays Festival.

Things to do in Banff

The apres-ski vibe in Banff is laid back, and the friendly locals will welcome you with open arms. Raise a glass to an epic day on the mountain on the sunny terrace at Mt Norquay's Lone Pine. Or soak up the last of the sun on Banff’s Brew Co balcony. Feeling the burn? The town’s mineral-rich natural hot springs with magnificent mountain vistas are superb for soothing tired legs. Non-skiers will be kept entertained with ice skating, snowmobiling and dog sledging. And the whole family will love the variety of hearty Canadian grub on offer.
