A beautiful turquoise lake outlined by the soaring Victoria Glacier. Calm, glassy water in summer, and a frozen skating rink in the winter. Canoes glide across the surface, with mountains create a natural amphitheater.

This lake is set deep in the Ten Peaks Valley, and shines with a beautiful shade of blue!From the Rockpile viewpoint, the entire valley opens before you - jagged peaks, thick forest, and crystal water all blend into an amazing view!

Johnston Canyon is a narrow, limestone gorge filled with rushing water, waterfalls, and suspended catwalks. The Lower Falls are intimate and powerful, while the Upper Falls rise tall and dramatic; in winter, frozen waterfalls create an icy fairy-tale feel.

Lake Minnewanka is one of Banff's most atmospheric spots. The lake has a quiet beauty, and visitors often walk along the shoreline trails, where evergreen forest meets rocky beaches and mountain views reveal themselves around every bend. Boat cruises glide across the water during the Summer months, offering a chance to see wildlife on the slopes and hear stories of the Indigenous peoples who lived along the lake for thousands of years.

Banff National Park includes a sweeping wilderness of towering mountain ranges, glacier valleys, and turquoise lakes. Wildlife wanders freely across some roads, rivers sparkle under alpine sunlight, and every turn reveals a view worthy of a postcard.

A sudden, dramatic viewpoint which reveals the Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel, perched like a castle above the Bow River. Beautiful mountain slopes frame the scene, and the river's rapids add movement to the secluded-castle feel.

A wide, rushing cascade where the Bow River spreads out and tumbles over rocky shelves. You canwalk next to the river, feeling the rhythm and cool spray as the water accelerates toward the valley.
