An underrated gem, Mount Norquay is an affordable and family-friendly resort offering surprisingly steep slopes for a ski hill. While the lower elevation here means lower total snowfall compared to neighbouring resorts, 85% of the mountain is covered by snowmaking! Located just outside of Banff, the Ski Big 3 pass will give you access not only to Mt Norquay but also Lake Louise and Sunshine Village.
