Thoughts From a "Lost Canadian" about Banff National Park

One of the things I have found to be wonderful about the USA are the National Parks - especially Lassen National Park. The National Parks belong to the people and give us the opportunity to see and experience amazing places and incredible beauty. So, this "Lost Canadian" is very happy to learn Canada also has National Parks, so over the coming days, I am very happy to let you know about these places of wonder throughout Canada, starting with Banff National Park in Alberta -

  • Banff National Park is Canada's first National Park - established in 1885.
  • Famous for its iconic turquoise glacial lakes, towering peaks, and abundant wildlife, it spans 6,641 square kilometers.
  • Wildlife adds to the beauty of Banff - grizzly bears, elk, bighorn sheep, and eagles.
  • Lake Louise & Moraine Lake: Renowned for vibrant, blue-green waters framed by majestic peaks.
  • The town of Banff offers dining, shopping, and natural hot springs.
  • Icefield Parkway offers breathtaking views of glaciers, waterfalls, and alpine canyons.
