Peak Leaders Banff

Reputed for its champagne powder and lively nightlife, Banff offers the best of both worlds. With some of the most adventurous in-bounds freeride in the world and some of the most qualified and competent ski instructors in Canada, our primary training ground, Sunshine Village Ski Resort, will have you ripping up the mountain with the best of them. Combine this with the luxuries of quality hotel accommodation, downtown restaurant meals 5 nights a week included, and several other spectactular ski resorts within easy striking distance, and you're set for the time of your life.

Banff is renowned for its great bars, restaurants and and lively nightlife with plenty of live bands and guest DJ's .  Regular haunts include Mel's for a warm up and Hoodoo Lounge or Aurora's. There's also the opportunity to explore the area with dog-sledding, ice-walks, snow mobiling, climbing wall, cross-country skiing, great shopping, and nice coffee shops for chilling out.

The Park is a vast untamed territory.  Because the Town of Banff is surrounded by mountain parkland and wilderness you have the chance to see incredible wildlife - grizzly and black bears, moose, wolves, mountain goats, deer, cougars, beavers, porcupines and coyote!

The Canadians are the best in the world when it comes to ice hockey; everyone plays! You can watch the Calgary Flames in action during your course.
