ROCS Holidays 30-Day Grand Canadian Train Journey

EXPLORING BANFF Cradled among the mountains of Banff National Park - Canada’s first national park and the flagship of the nation’s park system - the thriving resort town of Banff is a place of stunning scenery, ample wildlife and tranquil nature. With activities fit for every age and interest, try whitewater rafting, canoeing, horseback riding, hiking, zip lining or biking. A trip up the Banff Gondola reveals panoramic views at over 7,500 feet above sea level. Home to turquoise glacial lakes, snow-capped mountains, abundant wildlife and canyons filled with waterfalls, Banff is arguably the most scenic national park in the Rockies. Summer is a wonderful time to explore, with extended daylight hours, warm temperatures and wildlife at its most active. Book a guided tour to spot black and grizzly bears, elk, deer, bighorn sheep, coyotes, wolves, Columbian ground squirrels and pikas. Banff National Park is a dream come true for outdoor adventure lovers. A visit to Johnston Canyon offers a great half-day hike, while activities like canoeing, cycling, fishing, horseback riding and kayaking are also available. Enjoy views from 7,500 feet above sea level at the Banff Gondola or visit the spectacular Banff Springs Golf Course for both a breathtaking and challenging 18 holes. At the end of the day, visit Banff’s Upper Hot Springs to relax and unwind in thermal hot pools, or spend time enjoying Banff town’s breweries, distilleries and restaurants.
