Kicking Horse Mountain Resort

There’s a great deal of Canadian history behind Kicking Horse Mountain Resort. It is named after the renowned river and the famous high-alpine pass that were instrumental in opening the Canadian West to the rest of the world. The Kicking Horse name reflects a sense of adventure, discovery and exploration.

Kicking Horse Mountain Resort is the first four season mountain resort to be built in the Canadian Rockies in the past 25 years.

The resort is ideally situated to produce a sparkling, light and dry snow and the varied terrain offers a winter playground for those new to alpine adventure and the perfect opportunity for adrenaline junkies to charge down a 4,000 foot ski out - the second longest in Canada.

You'll get to the top of your run in comfort and style with the Golden Eagle Express walk-in gondola - the first level, walk-in gondola to be used in Canada.
