Alberta Ski Vacations

Alberta's winter means a ski vacation for multitudes of tourists and locals, and that equals incredible amounts of snowboarding, skiing, and other snow-related activities. Here are some of the most acclaimed spots for ski vacations in Alberta:

Ideal spots for a ski holiday

The Castle Mountain is just about 1.5 hours from the border of US, and it has slopes for the best level skiers. It is not exactly the best venue for a newbie in skiing but this place offers plenty of snow-filled attractions.

The Lake Louise Mountain Resort is the country's biggest ski (single) area, holding seventeen square kilometers of ground. This place has a special layout, with newbie, intermediate, and expert runs to offer. This means ski groups of all levels could go together.

The Marmot Basin is a family-oriented resort, and if you wish for a ski resort that is not too crowded, this is the place to be. There are 84 runs for all skill levels, making this place a definite tourist magnet.

Another perfect place for an Alberta ski vacation is Nakiska, which is a cruiser's haven, and also best for families on a holiday.

The Sunshine Village has a very long ski season, and if you want your ski vacations to be of long duration, better book accommodations in this place. From November to May, the ski action runs and it runs vigorously. The double black diamond run may sound like a challenging slope and it goes by "Delirium drive" but the name is the only thing scary about it. It serves as a fun place for the hundreds and sometimes even thousands of visitors in Alberta.
