Very friendly and knowledgeable staff! Well stocked with maps and other brochures that are relevant for the park
(2017) Fantastic helpful staff! They had good information about lovely trips (like Johnston Canyon). It's situated inside the (old?) train station. There are lovely old pictures from past times.
Un lugar estupendo y con personal encantador.
This is not the main Visitor Centre, just a satellite location. But it's a lot less busy. You can buy Park Passes there and get info on hikes.
The staff here was very helpful, but for someone driving though, there was no place to park. The whole town was full of circling cars looking for a parking spot. Grab a parking spot anywhere you can, as far out as you have to and walk here. Then get out of downtown Banff as fast as possible and back into the wilderness.
Really cool to see this old railway station
