3 days in Banff National Park - Travel Guide

[@hannahhuffman3552]

This was perfect thanks! I went to Banff area twice when I was a kiddo but it has been 15 years or so since I was here. My husband has had this on his bucket list for years and decided it would be a good quick trip. I had similar items on my itinerary as you did and we are going at the end of September 2033. Good info. Thanks

Glad you enjoyed it!

Your vlogs are so good 😮

[@debrabalawajder2617]

Enjoyed your video and info. Most of the Mountain views were beautiful and clear; a few were “muted”; was that from smoke?

Hey Trace Can you please recommend a hotel canmor?

We’ve reached. The same. Location😆

Glacial till is what causes the blue color. Highly, highly unlikely that it is granite in the Canadian Rockies. Most commonly limestone.

[@tracetravel]

Very good point! While it is not made up of granite, it is still widely known as “glacial flour” comprised of primarily limestone and shale. Thanks!

[@mohansharma7707]

Very nice video

[@KennethDXB]

would be nice if the background is not blurry whenever you are looking at the camera. great video though!

[@tracetravel]

Noted! Thank you for the feedback

[@andreinaquintana7755]

Did you need snow tires when you went in October ?

[@aoopss]

We are Panjabi (Punjabi) we like your videos 👍 Enjoy

[@tracetravel]

Thank you so much 😊

[@gridharazhagapa4626]

Where did you park for the Hector lake? Awesome spotting of this lake❤

[@tracetravel]

We parked just at the trailhead about 20 minutes outside of the town before lake Louise. I’d recommend downloading all trails and using that to find the trail head!

[@4lifersssss346]

What is the best time to go there in July or August

[@voiceofreason314]

How long did it take to walk from the parking lot of Hector Lake to that river?

[@tracetravel]

Probably under an hour!

If I’m flying in from Los Angeles are there car rental options ?

[@trevorakimoto]

Hello! Yes we rented directly from Calgary airport and got a nice keep for a fairly affordable price

[@Dancingdonut44]

Planning to take my 1.5 year old. Is the hike doable with kids?

[@trevorakimoto]

Absolutely doable with kids! May need to carry your child when crossing the River though

[@MrSamarsingh]

Please tell where u lived

[@Fer_1313]

Hii thanks for all the information shared! Would you say those hikes to get to the lakes are difficult? I’m planning to go because of the beautiful landscapes but tbh I’m not really sporty so I’m kind of scared 😅

[@tracetravel]

All of the hikes were super easy, actually! You don't need to worry about the difficulty as they are all heavily tracked, just bring some hiking/walking shoes and you'll be good to go 👍

[@earleecoreas1331]

Any park restrooms on the hiking trails?

[@tracetravel]

On all the more popular trails, there are park restrooms at the entrance and end of the hikes!

Ballsy move to take a canoe out that wasn’t yours
