With its quiet meadows, thundering waterfalls, towering peaks and misty canyons, you can see why so many people call Banff - the ‘Grand Masterpiece Of The West’ and you’ll discover it too on coach holidays to the highest town in Canada. There is a magical assortment of things to do and sights to see on coach tours so you’ll never get bored whilst holidaying here.
Banff National Park is one of the main attractions here as it is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It is home to seven National historic sites such as Skoki Lodge, Abbot Pass Hut, Howse Pass, Cave and Basin, Banff Park Museum, Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel, and the Cosmic Ray Station on Sanson Peak.
The National Park has over 1,000 glaciers and the highest mountain in Banff is Mount Forbes. Hiking is one of the best ways to truly make the most of Banff’s wonderful scenery and to get that perfect family photo. There are so many places to explore that the only problem you will have is deciding which route to take – choose from Tunnel Mountain, Johnston Canyon, Stanley Glacier, Boom Lake, Twin Falls and that’s just for starters! Don’t forget to grab that camera whilst hiking as you may spot a multitude of flora & fauna from the Colombian Ground Squirrels to Wapiti (Elk) and not forgetting the grizzly bear!
