Frequently asked questions
When should I visit Banff?
December to March for skiing and frozen-lake walks; June to September for hiking, canoeing and the turquoise lakes. October and May are quieter shoulder seasons.
Do I need a car in Banff?
Not necessarily — Banff town and the ski hills are connected by Roam transit. A car helps for Lake Louise and the Icefields Parkway, but many stays are walkable to the gondola and town.
