This Massive North American Ski Resort Is Located Inside an Iconic National Park—With Glacier Views and Short Lift Lines

"You can also venture beyond the traditional ski area boundaries to Skoki Lodge, a private hideaway and National Historic Site with backcountry and Nordic skiing surrounding it. The lodge can be accessed via a seven-mile trail that runs from the resort into Banff National Park's high alpine. The lodge is rustic, with no electricity or running water, but it still manages a bit of elegance thanks to cozy beds topped with down comforters and flannel sheets, and hearty meals, including a three-course dinner served with fresh-baked bread. Reservations must be made at least seven days in advance." - Evie Carrick Evie Carrick Evie Carrick is a writer and editor who’s lived in five countries and visited well over 50.
