Castle Junction

Travel Guide

Heading eastbound on TransCanada 1 just before Banff, I was stuck by the beauty of the afternoon sun lighting up the mountains. I pulled off at the Hwy 93 exit and climbed up a rickety billboard scaffold (not recommended) to capture this shot.

view from the hike up castle mountian. looking in the bow valley. #bvmountains
Just over the Bow River from the Castle Mountain Chalets, there is this fantastic view of Castle Mountain. Snowy mountains on cold clear skies are the best!

Sound of train whistle is quaint but not good for light sleepers.

3/5 - Okay

TJS
