Beginners

With 15 beginners runs in the resort, all within the treeline, Kicking Horse
 offers beautiful surroundings in which to learn. Couple this with a first rate ski and snowboard school, you'll be venturing higher up into the more challenging, pristine slopes in no time!

Intermediates

This resort is an intermediates dream with plenty to keep you occupied for the whole of your stay. Test yourself on the variety of off-piste slopes in the world famous Kicking Horse 'Champagne Powder', or take a trained guide and experience the whole mountain in the Performance Guiding classes.

Advanced

This mountain range was almost made for the advanced skier or boarder, with it's two ridges, CPR Ridge and Redemption Ridge. The most challenging runs in the resort offer single and double Black Diamond chutes and steeps, all of it off-piste, but within the patrolled ski area. If you want to make a name for yourself in the resort then try Run 93 from the top of Terminator Peak on the edge of the ski boundary, only for the most experienced of skiers and definitely not for the faint hearted!

Snowboarding

Snowboarders will love the off-piste here, as the Champagne Powder will make it feel like your floating down the slopes! There's no board park for anyone wanting some air time in Kicking Horse, but this resort will definitely suit those Big Mountain boarders.
