Family Skiing in Banff: Your Guide to Sunshine Village

In this episode of the Ski Moms Podcast, Nicole and Sarah welcome Kendra Scurfield, Vice President of Brand and Communications at Sunshine Village Ski and Snowboard Resort in Banff, Canada. As both a ski industry professional and a mom to a young skier, Kendra offers unique insights into the family-friendly aspects of skiing in Banff.

Kendra shares her deep connection to the area, having grown up in Banff and now working at her family's resort. She provides comprehensive information about Sunshine Village, from its unique gondola access to its variety of terrain spanning over 3,000 acres! The discussion covers everything families need to know about planning a ski trip to Banff, including transportation, accommodation options, and activities both on and off the mountain.

We loved learning about the Sunshine Mountain Lodge, the area's only ski-in/ski-out hotel, and its family-friendly amenities including an on-mountain licensed daycare - a rare find in today's ski industry. Kendra also explains the differences between Banff's three ski areas and why Sunshine Village is particularly well-suited for families.
