Nestled in the majestic pines of Pigeon Mountain at the foot of the Lougheed and Windtower Mountains is Banff Gate Mountain Resort, an outdoor playground for all ages. It is here that mountain activities and rustic amenities meet amongst a quaint village of 46 fully appointed chalets surrounded by the adventures of Banff National Park and nearby Lake Louise. Activities include water rafting, hiking, skiing, mountain biking, dog sledding, golf and an abundance of scenic views of the Canadian Rockies. For those preferring more peace and quiet, the picturesque grounds of the resort provide the perfect retreat. Children’s play areas are intertwined by hiking trails that sprawl throughout the resort connecting to the surrounding wilderness. Local wildlife often wander unhindered throughout the area and across the property. 33
