A Loppet is a "community fun race" open to all ages and abilities. The Calgary Ski Club's annual Lake Louise Loppet is the longest running in Western Canada. It is held every year in Lake Louise. We encourage you, your family and friends to come out and participate in this extraordinary event and enjoy the breathtaking scenery of Lake Louise while cross country skiing.

In the spirit of reconciliation, the Calgary Ski Club invites Indigenous cross country skiers, young or old to participate in each Lake Louise Loppet.

Able-bodied skiers of all ages and speeds are welcome, and we look forward to more Para-Nordic Sit-Skiers joining us this year, possibly Sight Impaired skiers and also Special Olympians, please join as well. We have routes and distances to challenge all ski levels.

Park Passes

All event participants must have a valid National Park Pass. Banff National Park entry fees go towards maintaining the park's roadways, viewpoints, day use areas and trails - and the information, education, resource protection and public safety services offered by Parks Canada staff. For prices or to order your park pass online: https://parks.canada.ca/pn-np/ab/banff/visit/passer-passes

Park Stewardship Opportunities

The Calgary Ski Club and the Lake Louise Loppet organizing committee wish to promote opportunities for participants to engage in park stewardship activities pre and post the Lake Louise Loppet. Participants are encouraged to explore while here for the event or on return trips. Whether you are an individual, couple or family, local or international, or part of a larger group visiting Banff National Park, you will find mountains of opportunities to engage in programs that support a sustainable future for the park at this link: http://parks.canada.ca/banff
