Twin Centre Holidays

Quiet Nightlife

A ski holiday in Lake Louise will benefit from three superb ski areas in the heart of the Rocky Mountains, each set in stunning scenery & linked by an efficient ski bus system. There are stunning views from glacier to lake & high mountain vistas - some of the most amazing views of any ski resort in the world.

Lake Louise ski area has a variety of long trails; 2 miles away & linked by bus service every 45 minutes. Sunshine is larger with many slopes above tree line - 30 minutes by bus; Norquay is smaller with mainly wooded slopes - 20 minutes away. Beginners learn quickly with excellent tuition & long green runs through the trees. Intermediates & advanced can use the Tri Area pass to explore all three ski areas during their ski holiday in Lake Louise.

There is no central village, but there are a few restaurants, shops & bars. This is not a resort for party loving people, more for serious skiers, boarders & families of all abilities who enjoy their ski holidays to be with nature & their evenings spent relaxing by the fire.
