Canada is more fun and fun than everyone thinks! Banff National Park, Canada's national treasure-level national park, not only has beautiful lake views, but also snow-capped mountains and glaciers, as well as a large number of special hiking and camping hotspots. Friends who like lakes and mountains, you must not miss Banff National Park!
Banff National Park, established in 1885, is Canada's oldest national park. It is located in the northern section of the Rocky Mountains, about 110-180 kilometers west of Calgary, Alberta, Canada. The park has a total area of 6,641 square kilometers and is covered with glaciers, ice fields, pine forests and mountains.
The Icefields Highway begins at Lake Louise and connects to Jasper National Park to the north. It is bordered by provincial forests and Yoho National Park to the west, Kootenay National Park to the south, and the town of Kananaskis to its southeast. The main commercial area in the park is the town of Banff in the Bow Valley. It is part of the "Canadian Rocky Mountains Park Group", which is included on the World Heritage List along with other Canadian Rocky Mountains national and provincial parks.
To Banff National Park, you can go to Calgary first, then rent a car locally, and drive to Banff National Park by car; or transfer to the airport bus of Banff Airporter or Brewster Express at Calgary International Airport to reach the town of Banff , about an hour's drive.
When you come to Banff National Park, of course you can't miss 3 beautiful lake views.
Moraine Lake walks all the way to the viewpoint next to the parking lot, and you can take a bird's-eye view of the most classic location, surrounded by mountains and pine trees, which is absolutely spectacular!
Lake Louise If Moraine Lake is spectacular, then Lake Louise is beautiful and dreamy. The water source of Lake Louise is the melting snow of the glaciers, and then mixed with stone powder, which makes the lake color become milky green. To Lake Louise, be sure to take pictures at the middle fjords.
In addition, the hut at the entrance and the pine tree snow scene are taken, which is another super beautiful photo.
Peyto Lake is a must-see lake. The color of the lake becomes clear and blue, and the surrounding snow peaks reflect each other. Standing on the observation deck overlooking the beautiful lake, it forms an intoxicating beauty.
Before going to Banff National Park, you can see black bears, but in fact, in addition to black bears, there are many animals worth seeing in Canada, such as bighorn sheep, Mountain Goat, and White-Tailed deer and so on. In addition, walking within the national park, you can suddenly find a super dream scene of a deer passing in front of you on the road!
It is also because there are various animals in the park. In order to protect them, the government will build "glasses"-shaped flyovers on the highways in the area, so that they can safely cross the road~
Tips for travel: The temperature difference in the Rocky Mountains is large. In summer, it is about 20-25 degrees during the day and about 10-15 degrees at night. It is recommended to check the climate of the travel date before departure.
Canada is located in a high latitude region, and the intensity of ultraviolet rays in summer is extremely high, so please bring sunscreen with you.
The best tourist seasons in Banff National Park are from June to August and from December to March of the following year. Banff is a year-round place to visit, with skiing in winter and flowers blooming in summer with a very different view.
