The Lake Louise Ski Resort Review

Great ski resort, close to home (Calgary). Their ski lessons are best value for dollar in my mind. All day for 5+. My kids are stoked!

Gets pretty busy but I love this mountain. Great for beginners (lots of blue runs). Only one microwave and washroom is kinda stinky. Still, runs are great haha, it gets a great amount of snow, I will always come here.

Runs are restrictive and don't allow much choice once on the run. Always gets icy after lunch

Lots of varied terrain. Reliable snow quality. Always a good time.

Awesome place with gandola Rides. Kinda expensive but if you have Groupon , it is extremely cheap and affordable.

What an awesome way to see Grizzlies. Highly recommend. I will be doing it again.

Amazing skiing. More expensive than some of the others, but we loved the long runs and the variety of greens for our family of beginners.

Out of all the ski resorts at Banff National Park this is my favorite for snowboarding.

Fantastic terrain for all levels of skiers and stunning scenery.

Had an amazing breakfast in the whiskey jack lodge after a great hike up to the tea house

Great ski resort, because it is with the group, no time to learn to ski, next time you must come here to ski!

In summer on the top of ski slope you can see panoramic, scenic views of Canadian Rockies.

Gondola ride was excellent with awesome views of the surrounding region - we were a little disappointed that we didn't see any bears on our ride though! We spent the extra two dollars for the breakfast buffet which was surprisingly decent and definitely worthwhile!

Rated one of the top ski resorts in Canada for a reason (MANY reasons) The views are beyond stunning. The food and drink options plentiful. The skiing is amazing. There are runs for everyone. I have never had a bad ski day at Lake Louise. You can take anyone there for a great day out and they will love it. Love the gondola and all the lifts are nice and obviously well maintained. It's truly a paradise of great views and great skiing

Lake Louise is one of the most beautiful resorts I had skied in North America (I have been to at least 10 different places). The views are spectacular. There is so much variety in runs. Although I visited on a long weekend, I never had a lift line longer than 2 minutes. The runs were very well groomed and if you get out just as the lifts open, you could make the first track. I recommend the Men's Downhill and jasper jungle all the way down from the Top of the World lift. I took the tour at 10 am offered by their volunteer hosts. Anne Marie and Marianne were exceptional guides and very knowledgeable. I highly recommend. The tours are free and they group you by ability. This is a wonderful service, that I, very much, appreciated. Thank you.

Great ski mountain!!! definetely many many routes to do not get boring in all season!

Great ski area, the equipment of the lifts is not nearly standard 2018 ...

Great snow coverage, fantastic buffet (it's all you can eat, I didn't know that) and no crowds. They were getting snow when I left so hopefully it's fluffy tomorrow.

Beautiful chairlift ride up. 2nd Chair lift was not running while h was unfortunate but the view was amazing.

Great resort with lots of options for every skill level. Challenging when busy as the gondola line can get very long but once you move up the hill it is not bad.

So much terrain for my terrible skiing skills. A little short on seating at the main chalet for how busy it can get.

Really fun ski resort with a fun apres ski Kokanee Kabin where you can meet up for a beer with friends after skiing/snowboarding. A good mix of runs for whatever ski level you are at whether that is beginner intermediate or expert. This along with sunshine are my favourite hills to go to in Alberta (Castle mountain is also a great choice but be ready for a bit of a drive for a day trip from Calgary).

Love that I have some of the best resorts in my backyard! We can always find good runs and nice lines!

Has to be the best skiing resort. Always an amazing time skiing here. Especially when they get a huge snow fall! Fantastic 2019 season

The visit was ok but the weather was very cloudy & as our time was limited didn't want to risk going up in the gondola to not see anything. Staff was helpful.

Absolutely fantastic, long runs with a decent mix of terrain. The skiing on the front side wasn't as interesting, but you had an unnaturally gorgeous view.

Although you can't ski in the summer, sit on the cable car up the mountain and overlook it.

Well maintained ski resort with a variety of runs perfect for all levels of skiers. If you want to stay away from the crowds I recommend sticking to the back of the mountain.

Absolutely breath taking views. The food is pricey but nothing out of the ordinary for a tourist spot. You can bring your own food and eat there. VERY! Busy and loud but enjoyable.

Great tubing hill with upslope walking belt much appreciated by all. Very friendly staff are trained well and place your safety first

The ski lift that is enclosed is a huge bonus. Really makes your day better!

I really enjoyed skiing here. The Ski Friends program is excellent and highly recommended. I had an issue with my skis, where a rental shop in Banff had not set them up properly, and I could not even get the boots into them. The repair shop at Lake Louise quickly fixed the problem for me, made sure everything was set up for safe skiing, and would not let me pay for it. I took that as a nice goodwill gesture, and it certainly added to my already highly favorable view of Lake Louise Ski Resort. I will be back!

Skiing in winter and viewing in summer! It is a cable car with a lot of uses! I can really see the bears on it! This time we saw the black bear and the grizzly bear, the grizzly bear with two grizzly bears! So lovely The people passing by are very enthusiastic and will tell you where the is, so that you can also see ( )

Love skiing at this location. Great on site facilities. If you haven't tried it yet it's worth going on 1 of the free guided tours. There's one available for all abilities.

Breakfast and ride was great value - it was a shame we didn't see a bear, but the views from the hikes are great and it's much cheaper than the Banff Gondola!!

Went for beginner lessons in late April for spring skiing. Great coaches and challenging slopes. Lots of friendly staff and enthusiastic locals. Will definitely come back with our friends.

No skiing for us but Whitehorn Bistro in June was amazing. We sat for hours enjoying the view, the food and the coffee.

Good food and great views of the mountains. This was the second time my wife and I have come here for lunch, and we will definitely be coming back again.

My favourite place to ski in the Rockies - lots of terrain, no lineups at the lift, some great advanced terrain. Always a good time.

Blue Sky, great snow, incredible scenery! Absolutely beautiful Lake Louise day.

Great for beginners. View from the peak is amazing.

Maybe the most impressive ski resort I've been to, and I've been to a lot. The back is enormous and awe inspiring.

Amazing place, breathing views..nice slopes..3/6/19

A delightful ski area with a wide range of terrain for all standards of skiers. Take advantage of the hosting services if you are new to the area. M

Amazing Ski resort. Breathtaking views over the mountains & Lake Louise can't wait to go back!

The skiing us great but definitely one to avoid on weekends and fresh snow days. Just doesn't have lift capacity to handle the crowds.

Package very expensive for the number of tracks (about 70 for an adult for the day). Fortunately the 'eige was good

Jon and rocket are awesome we were trapped on a gondola in a thunder storm for an hour and they went out of their way to ensure that we were okay. They made sure we had somewhere to dry off and provided us with heat and dinner. They honestly turned an awful experience into a good one

Absolutely loved it. Diverse terrain, great for all skill levels.
Absolutely recommend on a powder day.
Outta the three fields in the area this is my fav.

It's a very active place for skiing. The top of the mountain from the gondola, expect for people who are not skiing to have a small safe spot for you since everywhere, there will be people skiing around so we weren't able to get a good view without the wires on the way or the people skiing on your way. I had to go down immediately. Good tubing though.

Personally my favourite ski hill. Lots of options for every level of skier. If you ve never been, joining one of the ski buddy groups is a great way to learn the mountain.

Congested bottom of the mountain that opened up much more higher up. Stick to the top half/back side

unreal inbounds skiing , with tons of slackcountry. Not for beginners

I went on the Moraine Lake Guided Hike with Maggie and had such a wonderful time. She is extremely knowledgeable about the area and the environment and will tell you lots of interesting stories. Going to Moraine Lake was also just stunning - such a beautiful place that you really don't want to miss but Maggie made it special as well. She will walk with you for a while and point out a lot of interesting things.

Awesome place to go for a few days of shredding. Enough runs for both experienced and inexperienced riders. My one complaint is the saucer lift. Terrible! It keeps one peak of limits to whomever hates T-bar type lifts.

This is just about the dining experience....skiing is great. Never order ribs in the Powder Keg Lounge....over cooked, dry, barely any bbq sauce, and about 4 french fries as the "side."
