    Banff, Canada

    Travellers' Choice® 2018 Winner
    Banff
    (Photo provided by: Banff & Lake Louise Tourism)
    Flanked on all sides by the Rockies, Alberta's favourite mountain town offers an irresistible combination of luxury lodges, perfect powder, renowned restaurants and energetic nightlife. With both summer and winter appeal, Banff lures visitors to its stores, spas and slopes year-round. A thriving arts scene, and proximity to Lake Louise and Kananaskis County, add to its allure. Don't miss the hoodoos, intriguing rock spires, in Banff National Park, Canada's first and the world's third - National Park.
