Canadian resorts are also home to some of the world’s best heli-skiing and cat-skiing options. While heli-skiing (helicopter skiing) is well-known, cat-skiing is a fascinating and more accessible alternative. It uses a snowcat instead of a helicopter, offering a unique snow-gliding experience without the hefty fees. Furthermore, this option allows for longer breaks between runs, something highly appreciated by skiers.
One of the most popular destinations in Canada is Whistler, which boasts the largest skiable area in North America, with over 8,000 acres of terrain and 200 slopes. It’s ideal for beginners and experts, with various terrains, including wide, snow-covered hills and high-mountain bowls, where fresh snow abounds thanks to nearby Pacific storms. Another standout destination is Revelstoke, in British Columbia, famous for its impressive snowfalls and challenging terrain for more experienced skiers.
While travel costs to Canada can be higher due to the exchange rate and long flights, many travelers find that prices at Canadian resorts like Banff and Whistler are more affordable than at other world-renowned resorts like Breckenridge or Vail in the United States. Additionally, the welcoming atmosphere of Canadian towns, with their blend of tradition and modernity, makes the trip even more memorable.
