Some great trails for mountain biking into the back country with amazing sights and sounds to experience. These trail range from moderate to difficult but worth the ride.

Jurassic Park! The Royal Tyrell Museum of Palaeontology is a great museum with a very special collection of (almost) complete skeletons of all kinds of extinct animals. They are beautifully showed and there are some interactive programs.
Most spectacular is the two story high Tyranosaurus Rex and b...

Norquay Ski Hill is the local ski hill in Banff. We drove up there, mainly to take in the views on the way up to the hill. They are amazing views, which everyone should have the fortune of seeing. It was beautiful.

The 15 minute drive to Lake Minnewanka is a nice drive. The colour of the water is the most beautiful shade of blue that I’ve ever seen (it doesn’t always look that nice shade of blue in pictures, though). If you’re feeling brave, you can take a swim, however, the water is extremely cold, as...

The ride up the Sulphur Mountain gondola is a must-do when visiting Banff. It takes about 20 minutes to get to the top, and you can stay up there for as long as you want. From the top of Sulphur Mountain, you get to look out at all the surrounding mountains, and everything below, including Banff. ...

The Bow River runs through the village. Below the Banff Springs Hotel is a great access point to the river and Bow Falls. Here, you can park and hang out, sitting on the benches that line the river, or on the rocks on the riverside. This is a great spot to people watch, or watch the riverboats. ...

Hike to the Ice!
Mount Edith Cavel is one amazing place and should not be forgotten when visiting Jasper.
You find out even by just driving to the mountain that theres so much more then just the glacier at the top. The roads very long and widing and very narrow in some spots, really gives you th...

This is an essential stop for any Canadian at some time in his or her life, and for any visitor to Canada looking for a little history. The interpretive centre is located about 18km from Fort Macleod and is beautifully built into the sandstone cliffs in various levels.

Heritage Days in Edmonton is a weekend long 'festival' you could say. It coincides with Heritage Day (Canadian Holiday) aka "August Long Weekend."
In William Hawrelak park (a MASSIVE city park btw) many countries are represented by a fairly large 'booth'/tent section. Walk around and check out wh...

If you pick up any calendar of the Canadian Rockies, you will be sure to see a photo of Maligne Lake and Spirit Island inside, if not on the cover. Maligne Lake is located 40km SE of the Jasper townsite in Alberta Canada, and has a shuttle service from the town if needed. To get out to the site o...

A tour will take however long you want it to take. If you want to spend an hour or two looking at Government House's lovely art collection you are free to go at your own pace, and if you want as much history and as many anecdotes as can be fit into fifteen or thirty minutes, you will get it.
