Banff is one of Canada's best known destinations. Canada's first national park in 1885 (the third in the entire world), it covers over 6500 square km. It is filled with hiking, camping skiing, sightseeing, and other recreational opportunities.
It is common to see wildlife wandering around the park and even the townsite. Covered by stunning vistas of lakes, glaciers, forests and rivers, it is also a UNESCO World Heritage site. [edit text][editors]
