Have you ever…inhaled the pristine majesty that is Banff National Park?
Bakpak Staff Writer Shilo Urban
Banff National Park and the area surrounding it is much more than one of North America’s premier ski and snowboard resort areas. Since its very inception when a couple of intrepid explorers stumbled across some hot springs, Banff has been a holiday destination. From unique boutiques to hushed meadows, crashing waterfalls to towering mountains, this gem of the Canadian Rockies rests high on the list of loves for everyone who is lucky enough to visit. Boasting three world-class ski resorts (Sunshine Village, Lake Louise and Mount Norquay) within the national park, Banff is an ideal destination for adventure lovers who require a deep selection of virgin power to carve during the day, and a warm bowl of soup with a cold one at the end of it.
