Banff National Park in Alberta was established in 1885 and is Canada's oldest national park. In winter, its mountains, forests and lakes are covered in snow, attracting visitors from across the country and around the world.
The area is home to three well-known ski resorts: Banff Sunshine, Lake Louise and Mt. Norquay. Beyond the slopes, snowshoeing and cross-country skiing trails lead through quiet forests and along frozen creeks.
