Marvel at the 2,564 square miles of wilderness with a visit to Banff National Park. A favorite Rocky Mountain escape in both summer and winter, this natural wonderland is filled with picturesque lakes, tree-covered peaks, and towering glaciers. In warmer months, come for the 1,000 miles of hiking trails, take gondolas up to the mountain summits for spectacular views, or hop in a canoe for a scenic excursion through the lakes. In snowy seasons, hit the world-class ski resorts or take to the trails in snow shoes.

Stay Here: Fairmont Banff Springs is a historic hotel in the region and a must-visit when staying in the park. The castle-like architecture is truly awe-inspiring, as is the impressive spa.
