Extend YOUR SNOW Season by finishing at One of our Favorites, Banff!
Tucked within the boundaries of Banff National Park in the Canadian Rockies, the ski town of Banff provides a home-base to three distinctive ski resorts: Banff Sunshine, Lake Louise Ski Resort and Mt Norquay. Renown for great spring skiing conditions, this trip is your perfect season ender.
The three resorts boast 7,748 acres of skiable terrain, 2 gondolas, 26 chairlifts and 30 feet of feather-light, dry Canadian Rockies powder annually – all accessible with one SkiBig3 Lift Ticket.
The town has a great apres vibe with lots of restaurants and bars. A stroll up to the famous and pictureque Banff Spring Hotel or a visit to the Banff hot spring are "must-dos" during your visit.

Additional Fees / Cancellation Terms and Conditions:

For any refunds resulting from a group cancellation, participants will receive refunds, net of non-refundable fees, on their credit card.
Travel Insurance:
NTSC and the Tour Operator strongly recommend you purchase trip interruption insurance to protect against financial losses/penalties in the event you are forced to cancel or your trip is interrupted (e.g. flight cancellations or delays). Trip participants who do not purchase travel insurance will be required to confirm they have other coverage or understand they are responsible to any costs associated with trip cancellation/interruption.
NEW THIS SEASON. USA and Europe trip participants are required to provide proof of travel medical insurance coverage. In the past, participants who did not have out-of-country medical insurance have placed an undue burden on Trip Leaders and Travel Committee Reps. Injuries do occur and it is unsafe and can be very expensive to not have out-of-country coverage. Coverage is also recommended for out-of-province travel.
Comprehensive Insurance coverage can also be added to a newly purchased policy. The premium is due with the deposit.
Further details are available on the website Travel Insurance page.
By completing the online registration, you are agreeing to the NTSC Travel Code of Conduct and waiving certain legal rights against NTSC. Please carefully read the NTSC Travel Code of Conduct and the Travel Waiver.
The Travel Committee Rep for this trip is MISA at MISA-travel@ntsc.ca
