Banff
Welcome to Banff, Alberta
| Beautiful Banff, one of seven parks that make up the Canadian Rocky Mountain Parks system, holds the distinction of being Canada’s first national park, and for good reason. Established in 1885, Banff’s rugged mountain peaks, ice fields and glaciers, pristine lakes, sparkling waterfalls and exceptional year ‘round recreational and cultural opportunities attract over four million visitors from around the globe every year. It is no wonder that Banff National Park is recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of National Geographic Magazine’s top ten current picks for ski runs and lodges. The Town of Banff, which is less than a two-hour drive from Calgary, is the ideal place to jump-start your Rocky Mountain adventure. Here you'll find luxurious Banff mountain resorts, including the town's crown jewel - The Fairmont Banff Springs - as well as a unique mix of urban amenities - shops, restaurants, world-class art and cultural displays - and a distinctly wild side.
