The Castle Mountain Resort Snow School has some new and exciting programs for young children that are already skiing green and easy blue terrain, such as Huckleberry, who want to take their skills through the roof! These multi week camps are designed to improve skills and teach all mountain safety, all while having tons of fun of course!
Our programs involve performance skiing in brush training environments, terrain park skill development and awareness, and off piste skill development in challenging, un-groomed conditions. These programs will develop the essential skills needed to ski the entire mountain well and provide a skill base that can built upon in the future. Each program has a slightly different curriculum, check them out below!

Hi Cole – is there an age limit for the 3-Day Family Week Program for kids? Thanks.
Hi Anne,
Thanks for your message! There are three age categories for our Family Week Programs; U6 (for children under 6), U8 (for children 6 – 7) and U10 (for children 8 – 9). Hopefully this answers your question and if you have additional questions our Snow School would be happy to help you out at 403-627-5101 (Extension 231).
