Banff Guide

Banff is easily Canada’s most popular outdoor attraction, drawing visitors year-round to experience its magnificent mountain scenery. Craggy peaks, cascading waterfalls, and crystal-clear lakes combine to create a portrait of classic Canadian wilderness. Wildlife-watchers are in for a treat: bear, elk, and moose all roam here. And the bustling town of Banff offers excellent services for visitors—so good that some seasons of the year are plagued with mobs of camera-happy tourists.
