Kicking Horse
This is Kicking Horse Mountain Resort, the Canadian Rockies’ newest alpine escape. Stand atop it all and covet a 4,133 foot vertical, highest in the Canadian Rockies. Cut first tracks through 3 high alpine bowls, natural chutes, glades and 78 marked runs. Fly through 2600 acres of light sparkling Champagne Powder.
Visitors to Banff/Lake Louise have an opportunity to take their skiing a little further by catching the Powder Express from their hotel in Banff to Kicking Horse Mountain Resort.
