Banff Sunshine Trail Map
Banff Sunshine Village spreads across three distinct mountains—Mount Standish, Lookout Mountain, and Goat’s Eye—so you get a true “choose-your-own-adventure” feel. Key lifts like Standish Express (quick laps and family-friendly greens), Angel Express and Great Divide Express (high-alpine bowls right on the Continental Divide), the Teepee Town LX heated bubble (a cozy crowd-pleaser), and Goat’s Eye Express (long, sustained fall-line pitches) stitch together everything from gentle learning zones to big, above-treeline terrain with sweeping Rockies views. Sunshine’s natural setting—broad alpine meadows, airy ridgelines, and open bowls—means tons of wide groomers for cruisers, glades for explorers, and dramatic expert zones when conditions permit.
For families and beginners, the village-side learning areas and the Standish/Strawberry terrain offer confidence-building greens and short, repeatable laps close to services. Intermediates gravitate to rolling blue groomers on Lookout and Wolverine-side laps that link vistas with flowy terrain. Experts head straight for Goat’s Eye black runs and, when open, the in-bounds freeride zones Delirium Dive and Wild West—both steep, serious, and requiring avalanche gear and a partner for access. Sunshine typically sets up progressive terrain parks near the village during the season, with features scaled from small to large. And for mileage lovers, top-to-village cruisers deliver long descents; when coverage allows, the seasonal Ski-Out extends all the way to the base area for a satisfying end-of-day glide. In short, Sunshine’s diversity—true high-alpine feel, varied pitches, and easy lapability—makes it a standout for mixed-ability groups and anyone chasing big scenery with plenty of ways to play.
