Banff Town is a good place for leisure and holiday. Many people want to travel to places like Banff Town, but no one knows how to do it. You can change it according to your favorite attractions. The following is a seven-day tour of Banff Town.
Day1
banff cable car in the museum
on the first day, go to the museum first. Through the museum, you can better understand the history of Banff town and see what the beautiful scenery in the park used to look like. In the next few days, when you really meet those beautiful attractions again, you will feel deja vu.
The first thing to visit is the Banff Park Museum in Banff Town, which is the oldest natural museum in western Canada. There are as many as 5 kinds of animal and plant specimens in the house, from brown bears to bighorn sheep to all kinds of birds. You can popularize this knowledge on the first day of going to Banff. Because these animals will have a chance to see in the next few days!
after visiting banff park museum, we went to caves and basin national historical sites not far from it. This is a natural hot spring located on the north side of Sulphur Mountain, and it is also the "birthplace of Canadian national parks". If time permits, I personally recommend visiting here. Not only because of the story behind the museum, but also the hiking route from Banff Town to Cave Basin National Historic Site is very good. The chances of meeting wild animals are extremely high, and it only takes half an hour to walk. Very relaxed.
let's go to sulphur mountain this afternoon. Walking up the mountain is certainly a good choice, about 4 hours, 5.5 kilometers one way. Of course, you can also take the Banff cable car, which takes only 8 minutes to reach the top of the mountain. After reaching the top of the mountain, there is a short hiking route with low difficulty, which can be regarded as a friendly hiking route. If you don't want to take a serious hiking route, but want to take some hiking photos, this is really your best choice.
Day2
Nuokui Mountain in Tunnel Mountain
The next day, we will recommend you to visit the two mountains in Banff and taste the unique food in Banff. One day is in the morning. Get up early and go to Tunnel Mountain to watch the beautiful sunrise. It takes two hours to walk to the top of the tunnel, 2.4 kilometers one way. When you reach the top of the mountain, Banff Town is at your feet, surrounded by various other peaks. You can watch the sun climb slowly on the mountain, and this beautiful scenery will definitely make you unforgettable in this life! After enjoying the sunrise, go back to Banff and have a nice brunch to make the next day full of energy.
then we can go to mount nokee. Yes, that's the mountain where Marilyn Monroe used to ride the cable car. The action of waving her hand while sitting on the cable car has also become an action that people will imitate one after another when they come to Nuokui Mountain to take the cable car. Here I recommend a restaurant called CliffhouseBistro, which was founded in 195s and later developed into a restaurant serving Banff specialties. Yao, after all, you can't go wrong after driving for so long. If you like to play, remember to sign up for cable climbing. It's exciting and interesting, and even climbing white can be easily controlled.
Day3
Sunshine Village
As long as the time of Sunshine Village allows, please be sure to put this place in your plan. There are many mountains and lakes in Sunshine Village. Due to melting glaciers, these lakes are usually beautiful blue-green. You can get in touch with these lakes by taking the Banff Sunshine gondola Cable Car.
In summer, beautiful summer flowers bloom by the lake, which is very lovely. In addition to the normal scenery, because of the high altitude, the weather in this place will definitely make you say "fake is not decent!" " Such a sigh is really too blue.
There is also a free shuttle bus to Sunshine Village. Play leisurely, you can brush all day. If you walk fast, you can set up a boat and row on the lake around the town. Canoeing is the best way to surf the lake. Everyone can rent a boat at Banff Canoe Club.
If you don't want to go boating, you can visit the local summer market in Banff. Banff Hill Market is located in Bear Street Central Park (Hidden Street Park). Here, you can taste many local specialties in Banff and buy various handicrafts. Handmade chocolate, freshly baked bread, freshly ground coffee, handmade soap and other special gadgets are sure to overwhelm you. If you want to see the local life, don't miss it here! The fair is open from 1 am to 6 pm every day.
Day4
Lake Louis
How can you come to Banff without seeing the famous Lake Louis? On the fifth day, we arranged for everyone to look at her face. I am not exaggerating. Tiffany's blue is half as bad as the deadly blue-green of Lake Louise.
When you come to Lake Louise, you can choose to go boating in the lake, or you can choose to have afternoon tea at ChateauLakeLouise in Fermon next to Lake Louise. Sitting by the window of the hotel, you can see the beautiful Lake Louis as soon as you turn your head. This experience is really hard to buy.
However, to see the most beautiful Lake Louise, it is not in these two places at all, but you need to walk around and enjoy the beautiful scenery of Lake Louise from a distance. There are two hiking routes recommended by Lake Louise, namely agnes Lake Teahouse and Fairview Town Hope. The two routes are moderately difficult and can be completed in 3-4 hours. You can choose any hiking route to feel the beauty of this famous lake.
Day5
Menglian Lake
Please leave a whole day to go to Moraine Lake! After all, the road is so blocked, don't you think it's a waste of time to spend more than an hour climbing a pile of stones into the mountains? There are so many hiking routes around Menglian Lake, just choose one to make you beautiful all day, and traffic jams in peak season will bring unhappiness.
Comfort Lake and Larch Valley are hiking routes worth visiting. If you are too lazy to walk, walking or boating by Menglian Lake is a good activity. There are also many interesting treasures waiting for you to discover in MoraineLakeLodge souvenir shop on one side. If the budget is enough, the cabin by Menglian Lake is a good choice for you to stay for one night.
: Day6, Icefield Avenue
If you come to visit the Rocky Mountains but don't go to the Rocky Mountains, it may only mean that you have been here dozens of times. Snow Avenue and Banff are mutually enriched and sublimated. Without the ice and snow avenue, Banff National Park would not have its present status. Without Banff National Park, the ice and snow avenue might not even appear. The most fascinating self-driving road in the world can tell you, "Yes, what you see in the photo is what I really look like!" There is no difference between buyer show and seller show. What is the level? Just take a trip to Icefield Avenue.
Peto Lake, Herbert Lake, Mistaya Canyon, Gonghu Lake, there are so many places waiting for you to discover on this road, some are on the roadside, and some need you to spend more time looking for them in the mountains. Anyway, Icefield Avenue will never let you down.
what is the most important attraction on the ice sheet? The answer must be the Columbia ice sheet. How powerful is the Columbia ice sheet? It is the largest ice field site in the world outside the Arctic Circle, also known as the mother of rivers. In fact, there are many places in the Rocky Mountains where you can see glaciers and get in close contact, but this place doesn't need to go at all. Because you will take one of the only five snowmobiles in the pursuit series to the glacier. There is also a glacier sky trail next to the ice sheet. This trail is made entirely of glass, and you can see the end at a glance when you stand on it. Sometimes you can see the snow sheep standing on the cliff, a magical animal that will treat the cliff as nothing.
Go back to Banff Town in the evening and relax in the hot springs in Banff. The night in the open-air hot spring is really nice. The hot springs in Sakaka are very cheap. After all, it is in the form of a public bathhouse. Not only tourists but also local people will relax here. The fireworks in the mountain city are really suitable for feeling here.
