Ski at Panorama
Length -
Intimate, accessible, friendly, and laidback, Panorama has long been a favourite ski destination for families. The snowfall is dry and the days are sunny and warm. Here, 135 runs stretch across nearly 1,214 hectares (3,000 acres) of terrain with panoramic views of the Purcell and Rocky mountains. Panorama’s charming village is home to Canada’s largest outdoor slope-side hot pools, and the adventurous can go heli-skiing right from the village base.

- Feb 20, 2024: “People were nice and skiing was ok. If you have to rent, it takes about 2 hours to go through. A lot of time wasted. I would go to another closer hill just because of this.” 0
- Jan 26, 2024: “We had an absolutely brilliant holiday at Panorama. The weather conditions were beautiful and slopes well maintained. The kids enjoyed great lessons with knowledgeable instructors. Each coming away after 3 days with a better skill set. The rental staff and ticket sales staff were very helpful and friendly. We especially enjoyed the evening entertainment and apres ski atmosphere. Can’t wait to come back for 2025 !” 1
- Jan 4, 2023: “Planned to ski at Panorama on January 4th and have a Louise season pass where they are supposed to offer 25% off for season pass holders. They say it’s “blackout dates” but still offer the discount to lake Louise plus card holders??? Not only do they not offer the discount - they increased the day pass for an adult to $166/day which is extremely compared to other larger resorts in the area. Fernie for example is 2x the size and is only $149 for the day. We didn’t ski there and instead drive to Kimberley where we can support a hill that doesn’t take advantage of their customers. Very disappointed with their huge jump in price for the holidays.” 2
