 Since 1926 Ski Norquay has been the ski area for Banff locals. Just minutes from town, Norquay has everything you need for a great day of skiing or riding, no matter what your ability. Starting with the first ski runs cut in 1926, Ski Norquay now encompasses a wide variety of terrain and ticket options to suit everyone. The terrain ranges from gentle beginner runs that provide areas to build confidence and skill, up to heart pounding double black diamond runs that will challenge any expert.
Ski Norquay's long-standing reputation for challenge is based on the first runs you see upon approaching the area: a quintet of super-steep, mogul-studded freefalls served by the original Norquay double chair. For hardcore Norquay regulars, no runs anywhere can match Upper Lone Pine and Gun Run, a dynamite black-diamond duo as demanding as any trails in the Rockies. Memorial Bowl isn't a bowl at all but a generous, consistent swath with an average 34-degree pitch that rarely feels the blade of a snowcat. Even the North American, the easiest of these runs, legitimately earns its black diamond.
 Three more chairs climb up stepped-back parallel ridges and serve the area's beginner & intermediate runs. Continuing on to the main base area will bring you to more friendly terrain. In addition to a small, sheltered beginner slope, you'll find the Cascade Quad chair which services most of the beginner terrain and provides access to Spirit quad chair and to the long Pathfinder Express quad. Because the terrain lies deep in a valley under some very steep summits, it has a really rugged and interesting feeling. It also provides some of the most weather sheltered terrain in the area.

Our 24,000 square foot Cascade Lodge is a two-storied "Timber Frame Design" (post & beam). The second floor is set back to accentuate the spaciousness, and to highlight the natural wood beams of the lodge. Access to the lodge may be gained from either floor. Picture windows over the entire front of the lodge provide breathtaking views of the ski area and surrounding mountains from either floor, and the huge southwest-facing decks provide maximum exposure for sun lovers!
