Activity itinerary

Lake Minnewanka
  • 1h
Lake Minnewanka Nestled just a short drive from Banff town, Lake Minnewanka—meaning “Water of the Spirits” in the Stoney Nakoda language—is the largest lake in Banff National Park. Surrounded by rugged mountains and rich forests, it offers breathtaking scenery and a deep connection to local Indigenous history. The lake stretches over 21 kilometers and is a popular spot for wildlife viewing, photography, and scenic walks. In summer, visitors can enjoy a boat cruise across its clear blue waters, while in winter, it becomes a peaceful haven framed by snow-dusted peaks. The area’s blend of natural beauty and cultural heritage makes Lake Minnewanka one of Banff’s must-see highlights.
Two Jack Lake
  • 20m
Two Jack Lake Just minutes from Banff, Two Jack Lake is a tranquil, turquoise gem surrounded by pine forests and mountain peaks. Its calm waters beautifully reflect Mount Rundle, making it one of the most photographed spots in the park. A favorite with locals and visitors alike, it’s a peaceful place for picnics, short walks, and wildlife watching. In summer, you’ll often see kayakers and paddleboarders gliding across the lake; in winter, it transforms into a quiet, snow-covered retreat. With its easy access and postcard-perfect views, Two Jack Lake is a must-stop on the scenic Lake Minnewanka Drive.
Hoodoo's Viewpoint
  • 20m
Banff Hoodoos Viewpoint The Hoodoos are striking, naturally sculpted rock spires formed over thousands of years by wind and water erosion. Made of soft limestone capped by harder rock, these formations stand like sentinels overlooking the Bow River Valley, with stunning views of Mount Rundle in the background. According to local legend, the First Nations people believed the Hoodoos were petrified giants who came to life at night — adding a touch of mystery to their beauty. This scenic stop is a perfect spot for photos and a short walk to admire Banff’s unique geology.
Mount Rundle Viewpoint
  • 10m
Mount Rundle Viewpoint Mount Rundle is one of Banff’s most recognizable peaks, stretching dramatically along the Bow Valley between Banff and Canmore. From the Mount Rundle Viewpoint, visitors are treated to a breathtaking panorama of this iconic mountain, whose sharp ridgeline glows gold at sunrise and sunset. The mountain’s distinctive shape tells a story of powerful geological uplift and erosion that shaped the Rockies millions of years ago. It’s a favorite subject for photographers and a symbol of Banff’s wild alpine beauty — a perfect stop to truly appreciate the scale and majesty of the Canadian Rockies.
Surprise Corner
  • 20m
Surprise Corner Surprise Corner is one of Banff’s most famous viewpoints, offering a postcard-perfect view of the Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel framed by the Bow River and surrounding mountains. Named for the delightful “surprise” of this stunning panorama, it’s an ideal stop for photos and to appreciate the beauty of Banff town nestled in the Rockies. This spot is quick to visit but unforgettable, giving guests a classic Banff view in just a few minutes.
Bow Falls
  • 20m
Bow Falls Bow Falls is a powerful and scenic waterfall located just minutes from Banff town. The wide cascade of the Bow River plunges dramatically over limestone cliffs, creating misty spray and roaring sound that delights visitors. The falls are framed by views of the Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel and surrounding mountains, making it a perfect spot for photographs, short walks, and taking in the natural beauty of the Rockies. Though not very tall, Bow Falls’ impressive width and alpine backdrop make it one of Banff’s most iconic sights.
Fairmont Banff Springs (Pass by)
Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel Known as the “Castle in the Rockies,” the Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel is a historic landmark set against the stunning backdrop of Banff National Park. Built in 1888, this iconic hotel blends Scottish Baronial architecture with luxurious modern amenities, making it a symbol of elegance and heritage in the Canadian Rockies.
