Canadian Rockies National Parks Travel Guide: Banff, Jasper, Kootenay

[@AliceFordAdventures]

Have you visited the Canadian Rockies? Which place is your favorite?

[@danilshtrebel3188]

I was there in 2017. And going again Sep 5 2018. All places is favorite. And Alice Ford, I feel in love 😇😇😇

[@AliceFordAdventures]

That's so great. I really want to go back and shoot another episode.

[@TeckNeeX]

Johnston Canyon! If you haven't been you should definitely check it out. Breathtaking.

[@AliceFordAdventures]

Justinian Argo That sounds like an absolutely amazing roadtrip. I might have to do that one day.

[@x_electric_1503]

Banff and Jasper are awesome places to visit...

[@richardgeeslin9472]

Alice, one day, many years from now, you will reminisce about all of your wonderful life adventures and realize how rewarding they really were. Continue to climb high, look far and smile!

[@turdferguson74]

Gorgeous.... Mountains aren't bad either

[@radisson8627]

Thanks for sharing. That's my playground! 🇨🇦 There are so many possibilities depending on your skills. The Rockwall Trail is well known totalling 57 kms over 3 mountain passes. Give yourself 4 nights/5 days to complete the loop. Rated difficult. This hike will put your skills to test. The trail is well marked. You will experience weather patterns, wildlife of all kind and stunning views assured.

[@bergmanstrook]

Beautiful Country, Beautiful Nature, Beautiful lakes and Beautiful Animals.

[@blakesantoro1560]

I dont know which is more beautiful . . .you or the Canadian Rockies. Cool video!!

[@joemanpjg]

was here in 2013 breath taking beauty everywhere... MUST .Icefields Parkway, magnificent 144 mile drive thru the heart of the Canadian Mountains..Banff NP to Jasper NP Spectacular drive..

[@AliceFordAdventures]

It sure is spectacular. I hope to go back sometime soon, and explore all the places I missed.

[@rommelnavarrette2831]

Hi Alice, I've learned a lot from you and I truly admire you. Stay safe

[@Chris-xk4jw]

Beautiful scenery! Thank you alice.

[@KonoozTravel]

Great job Alice. I felt I’m already in Banff while watching your video. Keep it up. Greetings from Qatar 🇶🇦

[@HikingWithShawn]

This is really cool! I'd love to visit this area one day when everything chills out a bit. Thanks for sharing it :)

[@maxpaape5412]

Thank you for this wonderful presentation. Really interesting and very well done.!!

[@AliceFordAdventures]

Thanks so much

[@lornescott-wilson6144]

Fabulous spot. On my bucket list. Thanks Alice

[@AliceFordAdventures]

Your so welcome! I hope you get to visit soon.

[@terrymanuel3850]

Great video. We visited Banff in 2016 and had a wonderful time! Hope to return one day.

[@vegasdavetv]

just found your site, loved how you present this

[@joliettraveler]

Great video, especially the hike up the mountain. We stayed at the Banff Springs Hotel two summers ago. It is a fantastic hotel. Worth every penny.

[@AliceFordAdventures]

Thanks so much, I couldn't agree more. I hope you went in that fabulous pool and spa.

[@damasovi_travels1244]

thanks for the video! after 11 years I am returning to Canada and will be going here, to this area (Alberta) for the first time! Thanks for the video, I will see the other ones you have!

[@AliceFordAdventures]

I hope you have a splendid time. Thanks for watching.

[@livedadyt10]

Nice video, thanks!

[@ericmonte2038]

Alice, You should do a video about the best hidden places that no one knows about in North America. It seems like you have been everywhere. I would really be interested in a video about that. Keep up the great work... Eric

[@AliceFordAdventures]

Thanks Eric! I love that idea. Got any places in Canada you would suggest?

[@TravelAndDiscover]

Wonder Place, wonder video!

[@donreinholz8121]

That was amazing Alice. The mountain views were stunning. That suspension bridge looked a little scary. You always have fun!

[@ARIES9327]

such a darling luv your videos

[@Gencturk92]

This is the best place on earth, no human beings in sight. Its peaceful, relaxing, fresh air and nature.

[@fabianlibardomartinezherre8794]

todo es muy hermoso....

[@terrycoburn125]

I am lucky enough to have been to Canada twice and as much as I love Britain it’s Canada that is for me the most beautiful place on this planet, absolutely stunning country 💙

[@AliceFordAdventures]

Yes, Canada has so many beautiful places. I have quite the fondness for Wales as well though, You're country has so many outstanding places too.

[@terrycoburn125]

Alice Ford Scotland is really nice the further north you go the better!

[@turkey4957]

Canada is nice but the nature in the United States is unequivocally the best in North America. The diversity of regions while being globally renowned for their dramatic nature, and much longer seasons you can enjoy vs the short summer in Canada and mud and bugs that plague the summer months. Unless you’ve gone to the “big 5” national parks Southern Utah, the California coast highway, the Sonoran desert and Organ pipe Cactus. I’ve traveled extensively over North America and the Canadian Rockies are the only thing in Canada even close to globally renowned nature, and even still it’s a short season. Arches national park is a lot cooler than anything in bug infested mucky Canada

[@roger_is_red]

nice ,now its on my list, will head up there (from santa cruz) in my tesla (GO GREEN)

[@AliceFordAdventures]

Awesome 👏

[@muchlove9781]

Moraine is way prettier than Louise lake 🙌🏻

[@avro206]

this is my backyard. I have scambled Mt Norqauy too! :) Nice job

[@MalcolmSalmond]

I live in Calgary, Alberta and this is my playground. I rock climb, hike, and snowboard. This is a world class destination for all of that. I'm so lucky. If you ever come back I'd be happy to show you around :)

[@chanchan79]

Sueño con conocer esa region tan bonita...saludos desde México.

[@rigzinwangyal1952]

Thank you for the wonderful and informative hiking video. I am from the country of the world's highest peak Mt. Everest Nepal. I do lots of trekking in my country where you will find lots of unique and amazing landscape and lots of challenging trekking route which ranges from easy to hard. #hwwtreks I strongly recommended it to hike and trek lovers.

[@AliceFordAdventures]

Wonderful, welcome to my channel. I would love to go to Nepal one day

[@rigzinwangyal1952]

Really well done! Featured some of my favourite places! :)

[@davidkorosec5887]

Nice video! What month did you film this? July / August?

[@AliceFordAdventures]

Thank you. Yes in July.

[@utahdan231]

Great video. I visited Alberta and BC in 2004. I hiked to Six Glaciers Valley, ate goulash in Agnes Lake, canoed on Moraine Lake. I would love to revisit but there’s still so much to explore in the world and not much time. Canada is awesome.

[@AliceFordAdventures]

So true. I need to revisit Canada as well. There are so many places up there I haven't seen that are just jaw dropping.

[@tinderkeep5652]

I've hiked hundreds of miles in the Rockies and yet still learned and saw a few things in this video I hadn't yet. Your videos are really captivating - everything seen and more is well explained, great video and photography, and just all around fun to watch. I'm definitely putting Mt. Norquay on my "to-do" list.

[@gregjohnson298]

A beautiful place and a beautiful tour guide,wow!!!

[@justinsane3909]

Yeah, because that's what matters...fuck off.

[@TheWilsonPc]

Wow! After min 6:35 it's awesome! I was wondering it's a hiking trail to get the top of mountain of Gondola?

[@AliceFordAdventures]

There is a hiking trail from the bottom, or you can take the Gondola most of the way up and then either hike or do the Via Ferrata. More info can be found here. summer.banffnorquay.com/adventures/hiking/

[@lanphan3726]

I enjoy your video and it helpful as well as I'm planning to visit the Banff National Park in July this year :) I love that there's an option to climb up Mount Norquay 🗻

[@DaReelJLO]

Hi Alice! Great channel and amazing video on the Canadian Rockies! Just came back there myself on a great climb. What a magical amazing place! Take care! Keep posting great adventures.

[@AliceFordAdventures]

Thank you so much! It is such a magical place. I hope to return again soon.

[@DaReelJLO]

You should give mountaineering a try! You'd love the experience!

[@AliceFordAdventures]

I hike a lot and love to rock climb, so I am sure I would.

[@DaReelJLO]

you're all set then! : )

[@fotografomochileiro]

Nicely done 👏🙏

[@AreYouAliveYet]

Looks like we are trying to do the same thing with our channels, but you're doing the better job! Any Tips?

[@AliceFordAdventures]

I'm still trying to figure it out too, but a lot of it comes down to consistency and engagement.

[@AliceFordAdventures]

It's all about consistency and having a good product. I am definitely still trying to figure it out myself though.

[@tansamuel3305]

well made video, speaking not too fast, make me want to go to this stunning place

[@pagornsuebwong4320]

The pronouncer is very pretty.

[@vandalnonesuch8274]

Excellent images! I visited all of these except Jasper on a road trip from Dallas with my parents in 1974, and I still remember vividly how beautiful everything was! That trip took us over to Vancouver and Victoria, (plus Butchart Gardens), down to the Olympic NP in Washington state, then Mt Rainier NP. Incredible it was! I see this and it brings back fond memories!!! Thank you for posting! Also visited Waterton Lakes NP and Glacier (US) with my daughter in 2005, which was amazing and totally blew her mind!!

[@AliceFordAdventures]

What an amazing trip that sounds like. I still sadly have not been to Glacier hopefully I’ll do that and Mt Rainer next summer.

[@vandalnonesuch8274]

@@AliceFordAdventures Greetings: If you do have the opportunity to visit Mt. Rainier, and have not already been, be sure to visit Olympic NP - amazing in so many ways! 3 sections: 60+ miles of Pacific Ocean frontage, temperate rain forest with mosses and waterfalls, and the alpine section in the center, esp. Hurricane Ridge! It's a must-see park!!!

[@MusicLoverMusicLover-es6mi]

Beautiful, thank-you Alice!

[@greenish77]

Great video, there is truly endless adventure around here!

[@AliceFordAdventures]

There sure is. I really need to come back again for more exploration.

[@professorsogol5824]

Difficult to say what the favorite was. The Sir Donald travers? The north face of Mt Fay? Spending several days at the OLD Canadian Alpine Club Hut in Banff (the last summer before the lease ran out)?

[@sgabriel]

0:53 "The Canadian Rockies stretch more than 144 miles"?!?! Actually, yes, that's true!

[@THEOFFICIALNRG504]

Great Job Alice!

[@demus8757]

Yes, Lake Louise is amazing. But what is terrible: that ugly hotel they built behind the camera person. This should never have been placed there. It ruins the whole place. Who ever agreed to that really doesn't care about nature and beauty. Only about the big bucks. As usual.

[@philliphernandez8763]

So happy i suscribed to your channel, getting to know the whole world by just watching your videos...great job!!!

[@RyanNichols888]

Great video Alice, I plan to visit these places this July/Aug/Sep is that a good time to go?

[@AliceFordAdventures]

Yes that is a great time for the weather. It will be crowded though, so just be prepared for crowds.

[@RyanNichols888]

I'm traveling solo I was thinking of doing contiki plus I also want to see the northern nights at some stage. What's your honest opinion? Contiki or grab a car and diy? Cheers :)

[@AliceFordAdventures]

I would either rent a car or find a ride over to Lake Minnewanka, which is relatively close to Banff. In Summer you can usually see the northern lights from there between 1 and 3 am.

[@RyanNichols888]

Alice Ford Cheers for that, yeah I'll definitely look into that hopefully can find a cheap place to hire a car for a couple of weeks. Didn't know you can see them so far south as Banff. Might even see ya there :)

Great aerial photography, thanks for sharing the pictures and the info. I am not even going to get into the argument of global warming debate but there are many researchers out there in Banff and Glacier monitoring ice movement every year, not just someones anecdotal reference. Keep up the good work.

So I got to check out finally about 4 of your videos. Love them all especially this one. Very impressed with the way you speak in front of the camera, carry yourself and show us these beautiful places. You are a very personable and likable. You should have your own show on the Travel Channel. You’re filming is very good because it very stabilized and you cut the scenes constantly to keep people interested. Keep up the good work and I’m glad you hit us up on Twitter. :-)

[@edwardbeaven7222]

lived in Calgary [2 hrs. east of Banff national park ] for 30 years .I agree with this young lady , this IS one of the MOST beautiful places on earth.

[@Gencturk92]

I've been to Toronto and New York, I loved Toronto, such a nice city. What's Calgary like compared to Toronto and Vancouver.

[@edwardbeaven7222]

The downtown is no different than any other-big buildings, snarled traffic and rude drivers. the Stampede parade and daily rodeo sure is fun. You have to admire how tough cowboys are to ride the powerful broncos and bulls.

[@Gencturk92]

What about Vancouver ?

[@AliceFordAdventures]

The areas surrounding Vancouver are spectacular like the Stawamus Chief, Glaciers you can fly to and the pacific ocean full of Orcas. There is so much to do in and around Vancouver. If you've never been I would definitely plan a visit.

[@AliceFordAdventures]

I have not spent much time in Calgary so I cannot speak to a comparison to Toronto.
