Kicking Horse Mountain Resort
TripAdvisor Traveler Rating: 4 of 5 stars
TripAdvisor Popularity Index: #2 of 6 attractions in Golden

Kicking Horse has attracted rave reviews after just seven seasons for its awesome vertical, deep powder and spectacular terrain mix. With an express gondola accessing over 4100 ft (1260m) of vertical, you’re bound to ski and ride an impressive feat of terrain comparable to only that of heli-skiing. Coupled with summer activities such as mountain biking, wildlife education, and alpine sightseeing, this is a place where the stories are almost too tall to believe.
