"The drive between Fairmont Hot Springs and Panorama is quick at just over 30 minutes by car — but the two resorts couldn’t be more different. While both are family-friendly and laid back, Panorama is a big mountain with 4,265 feet of vertical and almost 3,000 acres of skiable terrain. The ski area is known for its giant on-mountain hot tubs, private heliskiing, and walkable ski village. You can also reach Panorama Mountain Resort directly from Calgary along a supremely scenic drive that cuts through the mountains and takes just under three-and-a-half hours.

Single-day lift tickets start at 135.20 CAD (around $96)." - Evie Carrick Evie Carrick Evie Carrick is a writer and editor who’s lived in five countries and visited well over 50.
