The expansive beauty of Banff, Alberta, was rediscovered in 1883 by railway construction workers and quickly became Canada’s first National Park.
Home to elk, grizzly bears, lynx and wolves, this territory is as rugged as it is beautiful. Between the many outlets for swimming, hiking, rock climbing, camping, bird watching and boating, active visitors will have no trouble finding an outdoor pursuit.
For an upscale park adventure, the Fairmont Banff Springs is a luxury hotel and resort suited for relaxation surrounded by the natural beauty of Banff. The services provided at the Fairmont extend to outdoor activities including horseback riding, cave expeditions, hiking and helicopter tours of the land. Guests can experience the best of the great outdoors with the added comfort of fine dining and award-winning services and spa treatments.
Banff National Park remains one of the most beautiful 2,500-square miles of land in the country with natural hot springs, caves, snow-covered Alberta Rocky Mountains, glaciers, meadows and gorgeous tree-lined views.
