The 2025/26 Ski Season Has Begun at Lake Louise!

The wait is over! Thanks to Mother Nature’s gift of fresh snow, ongoing snowmaking, and the incredible efforts of our mountain crews, Lake Louise Ski Resort has officially opened for the 2025/26 winter season! Our slopes are blanketed in a beautiful early-season layer, and like you, we can’t wait to kick off another legendary season at Canada’s Best Ski Resort.

Here’s What’s Open

Juniper Express Chair is open, providing access to Easy Street. Please note that Grizzly Gondola is expected to open Friday, with more runs opening from the upper mountain. We also expect to have one carpet lift running in the Learning Area this Friday. Additional lifts and terrain will come online as conditions continue to improve.

Terrain Parks: We plan to have two small terrain parks available opening day. Look for the first one near the Pipestone Chair loading point, featuring one or two jumps and a box. The second park will be lower down on Easy Street and include two tubes, a rail, and three boxes.

Services: Snow School will be open with limited lesson options. Rentals & Repairs will be fully open and ready to gear you up. The Retail Shop will also be open with outerwear, accessories, and early-season essentials. Our licensed daycare will also be open and ready to welcome your little ones.

Dining: Visit the Lodge of Ten Peaks Cafeteria for hot meals, hearty classics, and mountain views. Slopeside Coffee Bar will also be serving Starbucks beverages, cold drinks, and tasty snacks. The Powder Keg Lounge will be open as well, making it the perfect spot to relax with a drink or après bite during or after your day on the slopes.
