Banff is a truly famous Canadian city that is in the heart of the Canadian Rockies. It offers a cultural, educational, and beautiful spot to vacation.
Banff is so known for its natural beauty, and for being part of the Canadian Rockies, that it was declared to be a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1984. This means it is protected, so no matter when you visit you are guaranteed to be able to take in untouched beauty and wonder.
Banff offers a host of activities, from hiking trails and rafting adventures, to young adult programs and heritage museums. Visitors can decide how and when they want to experience the land, all while being steeped in Canadian culture and relaxation.
The town itself is also delightfully small, with under 10,000 permanent residents. This leaves a lot of space and room for tourists and travellers to come through, and to feel welcomed in this charming smaller town.
The town is generally best viewed in the summer season. There are some events (and a lot of beauty) no matter what the season of the visit is, but summer is when it is at its tourism peak and there are a significant amount of festivals, concerts, and adventures available. No matter when you go, you’re going to love the amazing natural beauty and historical value of Banff.
This is a trip to take with your loved ones. These are sights that will never be forgotten. It’ll take a bit of planning, a lot of research, and some cash, but it will reward you with memories for a lifetime, and sights that are utterly unforgettable.
