Best Things to Do in Banff
Seasons dictate the popular activities of Banff. In the winter, skiing is king. In the summer, hiking, biking, scrambling (a mix of hiking and rock climbing) and fishing rule. If you make the trek to Banff, you probably have an outdoor sport in mind. Take advantage of the rugged terrain in whatever manner you see fit. On your day off, be sure to leave your posh resort and try the stores and restaurants in downtown Banff -- all three blocks of it.
