Review:
Banff National Park has the distinction of being the first national park in Canada. Over three million visitors per year visit this flagship park.
As part of the Canadian Rocky Mountain Parks, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Banff offers visitors a plethora of outdoor activities all yearround. Visitors can mountain bike 190 km of trails, hike 1,600 km of maintained trails, cross-country and alpine ski, explore mountain villages, take scenic drives, and watch or photograph the park’s abundant birds and wildlife. One highlight visitors won’t want to miss is the Cave and Basin National Historic Site with its hot mineral springs tours, star gazing, and live performances.
