Itinerary

  1. Cascade Mountain is a mountain located in the Bow River Valley of Banff National Park, adjacent to the town of Banff.

  2. You will see a serene collection of lakes reflecting the surrounding mountains. They can enjoy picturesque views, go wildlife spotting, and capture stunning photographs.

  3. With its sheer cliffs, towering slopes, and dramatic presence, Castle Mountain showcases the raw power and magnificence of nature.

  4. Johnston Canyon is a beautiful place to visit year-round. In the summer, the canyon is green and lush, and the waterfalls are full of water. In the winter, the canyon is transformed into a winter wonderland, with the waterfalls frozen solid and the trails covered in snow.

  5. Discover the Bow Valley Parkway, a haven for wildlife enthusiasts. This peaceful route through Banff National Park is renowned for offering exceptional opportunities to observe animals in their natural habitat. Keep your eyes peeled for elk grazing in meadows, deer wandering through the forest, and perhaps a bear or coyote crossing your path. Early mornings and evenings are especially rewarding, as the parkway comes alive with the sights and sounds of the Rockies' incredible fauna. A journey along this scenic road is not just a drive—it's a chance to connect with nature's untamed beauty.

About Banff

Banff is a small mountain town inside Canada's first national park, set among the Rocky Mountain peaks of Alberta with hot springs, lakes and wildlife.

The town of Banff sits in the Bow Valley at about 1,400 metres, with Mount Rundle's sloping ridge rising over the main street and Cascade Mountain at the other end. It began as a railway town beside hot springs, and the Cave and Basin National Historic Site marks the discovery that led to Canada's first national park. A gondola climbs Sulphur Mountain for views, and the Bow Falls and a château-style hotel add to the river scenery.
