Sunshine Village, close to the town of Banff, provides skiers and boarders with a 12-lift system featuring seven modern quad chairs, the most in the Canadian Rockies. The first ride takes you up five miles to the base area. The high-speed quad chairlift allows a faster ride, higher capacity, greater height on the mountain, and improved access to the runs leading to the Continental Divide. Ski or ride in the provinces of Alberta and British Columbia on the same run. Looking for a thrill? Ask about the Delirium Dive. Canada’s highest elevated resort has guaranteed snow conditions from December to May, with an average annual snowfall of over 30 feet, on over 3,300 acres of terrain.
