Come find out what Ski Norquay has to offer. There's a variety of terrain to keep the whole family happy on the mountain. Norquay provides sheltered runs so skiing and riding is great even when the snow is blowing.

Norquay offers everything from beginner slopes to double black diamond, all against the backdrop of the majestic scenery of Banff National Park. The majority of terrain at Norquay is intermediate so you have lots of choices during a day on the slopes.

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.
