Road-Trippin' Fun
Heading out on the road is one of the best ways to discover Banff and Lake Louise unscripted.
Grab a coffee, even a bagged lunch and head out on your own sightseeing tour. We recommend you drive at much slower speeds for snowy conditions, plus you are more likely to see wildlife.
Make your own discoveries with these great day-trip driving tours.
