Ski Kicking Horse

The planned duration of the tour is approximately 12 hours from Banff or 10 hours from Lake Louise including hotel pick up and drop off (pickup time ranges from 6:40am to 7:20am in Banff depending on your pickup location). We try our best to adhere to this time schedule however this can sometimes vary due to unforeseen circumstances such as weather/road conditions. We return to Banff around 6:30pm.

The tour includes return transportation to Kicking Horse Mountain Resort from Banff, Lake Louise or Field and your lift ticket for the day. It does not include equipment, lessons or lunch.

If you only require transportation, then you can book this option without a lift ticket included.

We plan to arrive at Kicking Horse Mountain Resort by 9.30am just after the gondola opens. This can vary slightly due to weather and road conditions but allows for almost 6 hours of skiing before we depart at 4pm (please be ready to meet the bus at 3:45pm). Please note that Kicking Horse Mountain Resort is located in Golden, British Columbia, approximately 2 hours drive and 145 kilometers west of Banff.

The Powder Express is designed to maximize time on the hill so we start early to get you there just after the gondola opens and leave just before it stops. There are no half day options available.

Ski/snowboard equipment is not provided and guests are to bring their own. If you do not have your own gear we would suggest hiring in town the day before, or alternatively there is a rental shop at Kicking Horse Mountain Resort.

Please wear ski wear, including a ski suit, hat and mitts or gloves.

Although this tends to a mountain for more experienced skiers/snowboarders there are runs suitable for all levels. Feel free to come see us in store to pick up a trail map or speak to our staff to see if it will suit your ability.

This is not a ski lesson package. If you are looking for a lesson please speak to us in store about local options and we can find the right deal for you. This tour allows guests a full day to themselves to explore and ski/ride the runs they want to do.

There is a 24 hour cancellation policy, which allows you to change/cancel or refund your booking up to 24 hours outside your booked tour (up to 10 days for group bookings). No Shows and late comers will not be accommodated.
