How to get to Banff National Park?

Banff National Park is also a good scenic spot. Many friends who have been to Canada will choose this scenic spot. Now Bian Xiao will tell you some traffic information about this scenic spot. You can learn about it if you want to go.

FAQ Q 1: Is Banff National Park big? Can you finish it in one day?

A 1: The park has a large area. It is recommended to visit for 2-3 days. Of course, a day trip of 1 is also ok, just to see the most classic lakes.

Q2: What must I see?

A2: Lake Louis (Banff's ID photo); Menglian Lake; Icefield Avenue; Gonghe waterfall

Q3: Is there anything special to pay attention to when visiting in winter?

A3: In winter, many lakes in the park are frozen, and they all look the same. Basically, we can only see Lake Louis.

Q4: What about accommodation?

A4:

Generally, they will choose Banff town as their foothold, and then go to the surrounding lakes every day. Or a day trip to Banff or a day trip to Lake Louis (you can only stay at the expensive and difficult castle hotel). If the accommodation in Banff Town is full, you can consider accommodation in canmore. It's a 20-minute drive to Banff town, and the catering facilities are also complete.

Q5: How to solve the traffic?

If possible, let's go by car. These lakes are distributed in different parts of the park. Driving is the most convenient and time saving. Of course, if you have to, you can also take a bus to Banff. I'll write it later.

Q6: What are the precautions when driving?

A6:

There are many wild animals in the park, especially in summer. Be careful not to hit them. Winter is a snowy road, with ice below and snow above, so the car is easy to slip and the speed is basically reduced to half of that in summer. And the car has been outside for a long time. When you leave early the next morning, you need to reserve enough time to warm the car. The park's regular parking lot is equipped with wooden stakes with charging ports. If the car freezes to death, you can charge it there.

Q7: Banff Town Supermarket?

The largest is IGA, which has both vegetables and fruits.

Q8: Shopping in Banff?

A8: The main streets are full of souvenir shops. We suggest shopping around. You can look at outdoor products, the brands are complete, and the prices are often favorable, but overall, the prices are not as good as the shopping malls in Calgary.

Q9: What's the difference between Christmas and New Year and weekdays?

A9: The streets are decorated with festive atmosphere and there are activities on New Year's Eve. On February 25th, almost all restaurants and shops were closed. At this time, you will love McDonald's. After all, it is only open 24 hours a day, rain or shine.

Public transportation When people visit Banff Town, most of them choose to drive by car, so do I. But when I did my homework in the early stage, I found that there was little information about public transportation, so I wrote it here for the convenience of qyer later.
