This is the long awaited addition of a snow track to the lineup. Lake Louise, located at the foot of the World Heritage Canadian Rockies, is a fully original track set inside a fantasy ski resort. The 'Long Track' layout contains everything from low speed and high speed corners to a long straight, while the 'Short Track' focuses on twisty consecutive corners in a compact layout. There is also a 'Tri-Oval' track which only has three corners and allows you to go almost flat out all the way around. All three layouts are on packed snow and even has lighting for night sessions. You must equip your car with 'Snow Tyres' to drive these tracks.
