Canada - Ski Nakiska Kananaskis
Located in the heart of the spectacular Kananaskis Valley, Nakiska offers fast groomed runs galore!
The resort was specifically designed to host the alpine events of the 1988 Calgary Winter Olympics and for this reason, is the closest resort to Calgary at 83Km.
The resort was designed with ski racing in mind, but Nakiska's terrain was carefully planned to meet the needs of family visitors. The terrain caters for almost 3/4 intermediate skiers and boarders, with the remaining terrain split for beginners and experts.
Nakiska is nestled in the Canadian Rockies in picturesque Kananaskis Country, just a short drive away from Banff and Canmore. Although there is no longer a Nakiska ski bus from Banff or Canmore, we can help you get to this ski resort for the day - contact us for details.
We can also help you choose the ski resort which is right for you, so if you need any help planning your Nakiska Ski Holiday , please contact us direct.
