BANFF, ALBERTA

Within the rugged façade of the Rocky Mountains, lies one of Canada’s most spectacular towns. Located at 1,384 meters above sea level, Banff is also Canada’s highest settlement and site of the country’s first national park. This is a skier’s paradise boasting world-class alpine ski resorts, incomparable Nordic facilities, charming lodges, alpine castles and exquisite shops and restaurants. Once a quiet town catering only to summer vacationers, the transformation to the full scale year round resort that it has become is nothing short of magical.

A unique destination for business or pleasure, you may find yourself taking a stroll beside one of the local elk as snow falls gently around you. The most memorable aspect of Banff is obviously the landscape, with great peaks intertwined amongst deep canyons and placid lakes that dot the land. Though lured by the winter, many stay for the summer and return for the fall to see the autumn color as it begins to weave itself into the palette. Whatever the season, despite the reason, people from all over the world travel here to discover this small slice of heaven hidden in the clouds.
