Chateau Mountain Sports is a family owned outdoor retail and rental store based in the Canadian Rockies.

Our Story

Established in 2008 with a Retail and Rental store at the Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise, we now operate 3 locations in Lake Louise, Banff and Canmore. Our story starts with a passionate salesman; after 14 years, former Monod’s Employee, Sean Tupper purchases the Lake Louise Store front and opens a mountain sports store inside the Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise. Seizing the opporunity on a newly available space in the Fairmont Banff Springs, we opened a seasonal rental shop fitting hotel guests with premium ski equipment. After 10+ years of serving Banff and Lake Louise, we proudly opened our flagship store in the hometown of the Tupper family, Canmore, AB. We are incredibly grateful to serve our patrons across the Bow Valley and beyond while also sharing our passion and experience for our amazing backyard. 

Retail

Our staff are passionate about hiking, biking and skiing and love to chat about the latest gear and clothing in our stores to ensure our customers walk out with the right product for their needs. Our new online store builds on this knowledge and experience to bring the Rockies mountain lifestyle to you anywhere we can ship! Should you have any queries before purchasing from our online store please send us an email to info@chateaumountainsports.com and we will get back to you.
