Snow Valley Ski Club Review

One of my least favourite ski places but at least it is in Edmonton not 50-400 km away

Great location for an outdoor summer wedding. Close to the river valley and Whitemud Park!

A great hill for beginners to intermediates. I can t fault them for their geographic location. They have a helpful staff and host a lot of schools and young children. If you are experienced you may be a little underwhelmed as the ride up will be three times longer than the ride down, but it s in a convenient location for quick trips to the hill. I ve been coming to this hill since I could walk and will continue to train my kids here as-well. The concession is well stocked with options and operates very quickly considering how busy they get.

Great place in the city to start learning. Chair lifts are fast. The staff works fast in the ticket/rental/pro shop.

This ski hill is more expensive than some of the other ones in the city. But the runs are nicer and the rental seem to be nicer.

Will never come back again. The Old retired Volunteers they have there are ignorant and very ruff with the kids. The lessons are a joke that they offer. Waste of time and money. Thank you for wrecking my sons first ski experience and making it a complete disaster.

Liam Flathers is the best employee I have ever meant

The deal nights are good and it is nice to be able to get here in 15 minutes from home. Small hill, but not the smallest. It can get quite busy on Friday and weekends.

Can't give enough thanks and credit to the people who work here! So nice! We had a booking at rabbit hill for a private lesson for my son and accidentally went to snow valley instead lol. They easily booked us in right away, even concerned if we lost out on money (we didn't, bonus!). The instructer was Brooke and oh my she was so great, my son loved it and didn't want to stop. she had so much patience (he's a bit hyper) and even spent some extra time. This is a great beginner hill and we can't wait to go back!

Perhaps have ski rental discounts when they are only for ski lessons, it makes it very expensive other wise

$50 for the lesson, $20 for the rental = $70 for an hour and 45 min group lesson.

Even if you are only there for a lesson and don t buy a full day lift pass, you must pay for the full day ski rental.

Resorts like Fernie and marmot offer FREE seasons pass for under 5 year olds. A non profit charges $250 for a seasons pass, offering 3 trails and a view of the highway. Very strange business model and way to encourage kids (or anyone) to embrace winter sport.

Very nice to have somewhere to ski inside city limits. They have skiing, snowboarding and lifts. They also offer lessons and it a good place to learn since the hills aren't too difficult. The chalet inside is nice with a small restaurant and ample seating upstairs.

We went to a function at the Lodge and it was terrific! Big, spacious, well lit room with terrific catered food.

Beautiful place. Nice summer time camp ground rv park .. dog unleash walking trails

Love it! Easy to get to and the staff are so helpful and friendly. My daughter's lessons are a great size too, only 4 kids; giving lots of opportunity for improvement and instruction! We will definitely be going back next year for lessons!

The price for a one day lift ticket is outrageous. For a hill that small I can't justify it. It's a decent place if you are starting out skiing or snowboarding I suppose. Bad tasting food, but at least it has a nice chalet. the hill is very small, but the lifts are fast and there are no tow ropes, so that's a plus. An experienced skier or boarder is going to be bored here very quickly, but the location is good and the staff are friendly.

Smaller hill, you would think would put more work into there terrain park. Other then that not bad for being in the middle of Edmonton

Great snow school. Snow making and grooming beyond reproach. Small hill - great place to learn how to ski or board.

If you can't make it to the mountains this is a great spot in the city with super friendly staff at every post.

I have never actually been skiing here, but in the summer, it is an entrance to some nice walking and mountain bike trails. There is also a large obstacle course/playground for adults, and a campsite.

Fast service and great experience for the kids. We go here every week in the winter.

Friendly staff, and good runs. Best skiing inside the city!

Small hill but perfect for beginner lessons for the kids. Well organized, prefit for equipment months ahead (compared to Calgary's WinSport the day of)

Who doesn't like this place? For $15 for the last 2 hours?! I'm down

Tried the Aerial Park... great experience!!! Go with a group and work together!

Love this place. Visited 1st time and impressed with the facility.

the Snow School dept. is great, especially that AI May

It was very busy, but there was enough room for everybody on the hills. Lots of options for many skill levels. Had lots of fun!

Not Fun. Instructors mean and don't watch you. I recommend rabbit hill.

Great little hill minutes from downtown Edmonton. Little concession on site in the chalet, Two lifts and two magic carpets. excellent winter activity for the kids.

Fun for everyone. Pricey but not far to go and the fun is only limited to you.

Love this place. Staff are always courteous & helpful. Lots of practice areas for beginners.

Snow valley makes the best snow. Thanks to Marlin and his team of professionals, the snow base is never icy. I ride this hill a lot and I've gotten to be a very good rider here. Learning is what this hill is about. Take what you learn here and apply it at the mountains. Also great food! Oh and they have beer!

Great hills for the beginners, training, or learning tricks

A great place for young children to learn how to ski.

Great beginner hill with some steeper runs to help teach fundamentals. No lines!

We've been here several times and the service is ALWAYS horrible, we won't be going back there again!!

Good variety for beginners and more advanced skiers

Sad to see another season at Snow Valley coming to an end. I had my son's out here this year working on their boarding skills before the big trip to the mountains. It was also time to get my little girl up on her first skis, and like always the staff were helpful. She thinks she is pretty hot stuff now able to hold onto the tow rope. Thanks again for another great year!

I had a wonderful experience with my favourite snowboarders. Wonderful, friendly staff.

Great helpful staff. Knows how to deal with children in a very friendly way. Nice hills for learners right in the city.

Great hill for learning on, but not recommended for advanced skiers if you're looking to spend a day on some slopes. The "last two hours" pass is a good deal though for an evening on the hill.

We had to get changed outside due to COVID, but the hill was awesome.

I didn t come here to ski, but it was a good visit nonetheless.

Friendly staff, easy rentals but it's busy on weekends with the nice weather now and then in Edmonton, it can get packed and line ups are long.

Conventiantly close for people living in the city and it has a decent terrain park. Thanks for the reply on why snowskates are barred from the left! It is understandable that it is too fast for foot traffic.

Best place to learn how to ski or snowboard. Staff and instructors are friendly and helpful. No ropes or t-bars anywhere a big bonus!

First came here with school in grade 4 and had good rental equipment, not to mention the teaching lessons. The ski lifts and magic carpet lifts have safe loading and is great for beginners to learn. As I progressed, I found the valley had runs to match my skill level. The food is a little overpriced not gonna lie.

Great beginner runs for kids. Not too crowded, and good ski equipment for rental.

Every time I call to talk to your rental shop I never get an answer you guys should step up your customer service skills

By far the easiest and quickest Ski/Snowboard club in Alberta. Very fun place

Would be nice if they had free wifi. One of the chair lifts is not running which slows things down for kids at lessons. More terrain park options please.

Nice local hill for a first day out, school outings, small kids, etc. Great ski and snowboard school too.

Great little ski hill in the heart of Edmonton. The chalet is very nice. Rentals are in good shape and the snacks are reasonably priced and tasty. Will definitely be back.

We received a gift card for Christmas for Snow Valley, along with a print out suggesting to go on Family Day. The date of the print out is incorrect, but I figured it was a typo. When we arrived it was very easy to get my gift card that was there waiting for us. The gentlemen helping us gave the best deal for what we needed there. Getting the rentals was with ease, and they even helped by giving us a hula hoop to support our daughter for her first time. We had a great time at Snow Valley!

Great place for all sorts of skiers or snowboarders. I started learning how to ski here and it was very easy to learn here. The ski lift is safe and the staff help made it easy to get your rented skies.

Great place to put kids for ski and snowboarding classes

Refused to sell me a lift ticket until the bus loads of students (that were late) arrived and got checked in, had to wait a good 1.5hours. 20mins of me waiting for the buses to arrive.
Staff acts like like every skiier is a burden and total a incovnvience. Divas at the lift noticed the lift operators verbally abusing children especially when other adult are not present.
