Welcome to the Champagne
Snow Capital of Canada.
Kicking Horse has attracted rave reviews after just five seasons for its awesome vertical, deep powder and spectacular terrain mix. The Calgary Herald called it “the best skiing in the world – no kidding”. With an express gondola accessing most of the 4100 ft (1260m) vertical, you’re bound to ski and ride an impressive feast of vertical comparable to only that of heli-skiing. The on mountain village is growing steadily and the all round experience keeps getting better year after year.
Kicking Horse Mountain Resort is located 2.5 hours west of Calgary, East facing slopes allow for excellent snow retention and with the help of the elements this creates and preserves Kicking Horse’s light, dry powder. The quality of this fine, dry Purcell Powder has for years been the closely guarded secret of the region's local skiers.
You have on mountain dining from “grab and go” to fine dining and a must visit is Canada’s most elevated dinging experience...the Eagle’s Eye Restaurant.
