Closing date for entry into Win a holiday of a lifetime to Canada is the 10th March 2012.
Win a holiday of a lifetime to Canada…
Two stunning ski destinations. One fantastic prize.
This is your chance to win a holiday and an unforgettable 7-night winter holiday in the heart of the stunning Rocky Mountains, Canada. With over 8000 acres of skiable terrain, the Banff National Park is a skier and snowboarder’s paradise. It’s also home to two of the world’s finest ski destinations, Banff and Lake Louise.
Banff The lively town of Banff has an area of only four square kilometres and is surrounded on all four sides by wilderness. So spotting an elk or deer meandering down one of the town’s streets is far from an uncommon sight. Banff’s main ski area is ‘Sunshine Village’, which is not only the highest in the national park, it has 107 named runs and 3,358 skiable acres! So whether you’re a beginner, an expert or something in between, you’ll find a wide selection of runs perfect for you.
Lake Louise Unlike Banff the hamlet of Lake Louise is not a resort for those who like their après to be as lively as their day on the slopes. It’s better suited to skiers, boarders and families of all abilities who enjoy nature and quiet evenings spent relaxing by the fire. It’s also home to one of the largest ski areas in North America, with 4,200 skiable acres. But best of all, its unique layout allows families and groups of varying abilities, from beginners to experts, to ski or snowboard together.
The prize A 7-night ski holiday for 2 adults, valid for travel in winter 2012 or 2013*. The holiday includes return flights from London with Air Canada, resort transfers and 7 nights accommodation on a room only basis at one of the following properties: Fox Hotel & Suites, Banff Caribou Lodge & Spa, Rocky Mountain Resort, Inns of Banff or Ptarmigan Inn. To get you in the mood for all the action and adventure that’s on offer in the Rocky Mountains, why not catch the upcoming 2012 Banff Mountain Film Festival World Tour as it makes stops right around the UK.
