Get away from the tourist trap of Banff and explore. No $200 dinners here or expensive furs from Perú. This is what a national park is about. Best of all less Banff warden's harassing you for drinking beer or peeing on the wrong plant. Check out marble canyon
Take your time on Highway 93 to enjoy this beautiful park. Do stop in at some of the rest areas to take it in. Don't miss the lookout point over the Kootenay river valley.
Beautiful park. Some of the trailheads were not marked at all on the western side of the park. Camp ground was in pretty good shape. Lots to see. Really liked Marble Canyon. We were hampered by the smoke and rain moving in so we will be back.
Really, not much to say except it's one of BC's wilderness treasures. The scenery and wildlife is spectacular! This year when we went there were quite the forest fires up on the mountains
Underrated and less visited than Banff and Jasper due to having less attractions. However, campers will find the nights much warmer and the camping facilities much better. Only campground I've been to with steaming hot showers.
Absolutely breathtaking.
So many beautiful things to see and do.
This is a special place
It was free excess for Canada's 150 birthday. There are some beautiful spots in there to see.
Beautiful places. Nice to take hikes. It has improved over the years. It must have been gorgeous before the big fires of 2001 and 2003. It has a beauty of its own.
I was recommended to hike the Rockwall Trail, a 55 km, 3 to 4 days, hike through the Kootenay mountain range
This area in amazing!! We should have brought our snowshoes. This is probably the perfect spot to escape the crowds of Banff National Park and still have great scenery.
Lesser known cousin to Banff, but this place has some really great hiking and camping. Also, I much prefer the hot spring pool in Radium to the one in Banff.
Terrible site. All I wanted was a winter road/avalanche report. Nothing there. Site tells me to go to Drive BC, Drive Bc does not cover information inside the park because it's a National Park, they are supposed to do their own reports, but they don't. In the summer months there is a phone # for road reports but not in the winter. So if you have a doctors appt. or need to go to Calgary airport you just have to take your chances and head out on the road with no information except what they MIGHT be able to tell you at the park gate.
Great park if you don't like the crowds of Banff.
