Chandrayee Roy Choudhury: The proximity to the Rockies with their well known National Parks makes Calgary an excellent choice for Skiing, Hiking or Sightseeing Vacations.
Undoubtedly one of Canada's most picture-perfect settings, BANFF NATIONAL PARK 🏞️ makes the town of Banff for a perfect Day trip from Calgary. For those who enjoy taking their time & having the opportunity to stop & see the sites whenever the urge strikes, taking a car 🚗 (either own or rental) is the best option.
Driving is under 90 minutes, the route itself is nothing short of spectacular, taking in incredible mountain 🏔️ vistas shortly after leaving the city 🏙️ and which never lets up along the way.

One of the highlights of the visit will the seeing the LAKE LOUISE famous for its dazzling turquoise waters framed by stunning snow-capped mountains, the tallest reaching heights of over 3000 metres. It's the ultimate (safe) selfie spot- especially with the handsome Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise in the distance.
