Despite its high elevation, Banff Sunshine is great for Beginners. Its Green routes, which amount to 20%, are wide, mild in pitch, and most distribute to the Upper Village. This means you're never too far from the lodge. The Strawberry Express and Standish Express offer Green cruisers, like The Dell Valley and Creek Run. Green Run, off of the Angel Express, allows Beginners to marvel at panoramic views from 2,536 m (8,322 ft).

Intermediates will be in heaven at Banff Sunshine, with ~55% of the terrain designated blue. The mix of groomers, moguls, chutes, glades, and bowls within an Intermediate skier's ability level here are unique. Blue routes are accessible from all 12 lifts and across all three mountains. Warm up on a playful groomer, like Tin Can Alley, tackle the bumps of South Divide, or cruise the extra-long Sunshine Coast. 

For steep and scary, Goat’s Eye and Delirium Dive do not disappoint. From Goat’s Eye Express, you’ll find the Southside Chutes, offering steep, technical features up top and deep glades below. Delirium Dive, accessed via the Great Divide, only allows entry to Experts with avalanche gear. The payoff? A vast face of deep powder bowls, heart-pumping drops, and fresh tracks late into the day.
