The Skiers' Guide to Lake Louise: Expert Analysis & Reviews

I skied here for a total of 8 days, it was very early in the season so not all the runs had been opened yet. The slopes were not really busy and you rarely had to wait in line. The people working at the ski resort were over all very friendly and helpfull. This season a new lift opened that made going up the mountain a lot more efficient. However, there are a lot of old(slow) lifts without feetrests that make the experience going up the mountain less comfortable. But the skiing is very nice, there are a lot of options to go off piste for more adventerous skiers and also a lot of easy runs for beginners.

Lake Louise is hands down my favourite ski resort in Alberta. The groomed runs are amazingfast, smooth, and perfect for just cruising without a care in the world. If you love speed, youll have a blast. The backside is unreal, especially on a good snow day. The pillow field (actually called the rock garden) is incredible when its loaded with fresh powderyou just float down effortlessly. And once youre up top, lift lines usually arent an issue, at least on weekdays. The lodge is nice, parking is super easy with tons of space, and theyve added a bunch of new chairlifts, which is always a plus. On top of all that, the views are insane, and the wildlife is pretty cool too. Ive even spotted a bobcat a couple of times! If youre into skiing or snowboarding, I cant recommend Lake Louise enough.

Best powder and skiers make it a memorable moment. Food and beer is great! Slopes well groomed and lots of snow. Enjoyed it!
