Family-friendly ski school in Lake Louise, Canada

The mountains around the Lake Louise ski resort in Canada are among the most popular long-haul destinations for German winter holidaymakers. In the province of Alberta, visitors can enjoy impeccably groomed slopes and cross-country trails, as well as beautiful scenery far from the mass tourism that has already taken hold in many parts of the Alps. Skiers and snowboarders in Lake Louise can also count on an abundance of natural snow; artificial snow is used only very rarely in Alberta’s mountains. If any further proof of the quality of a ski holiday in Lake Louise were needed, it has now been provided by another award for one of Canada’s most popular ski resorts.

Neilson Marque of Excellence

The Neilson Marque of Excellence is awarded each year in Canada and the United States to ski resorts that offer outstanding facilities in their ski schools. This year, the award went, among other places, to Lake Louise and its neighbouring ski resorts, Mount Norquay and Sunshine Village. The award recognised the particularly family-friendly services offered by the ski schools around Lake Louise. The ski schools in Lake Louise, Mount Norquay and Sunshine Village welcome children as young as 18 days old and provide kindergarten-style care during the day. Children aged 3 are gently introduced to skiing in special lessons. The ski schools in Lake Louise also offer lessons for the whole family, regardless of their previous experience. The ski schools are generally part of the hotels in Lake Louise or are located nearby.
