Banff National Park

Banff National Park is Canada's most visited park, drawing over 4 million guests annually to its Rocky Mountain splendor. Established in 1885 and a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1984, its 6,641 sq km feature glacially fed turquoise lakes like Moraine and Lake Louise, set against peaks exceeding 3,400 metres. Grizzly bears and wolves roam valleys that host 16 times the annual visitors of #6 Torres del Paine. The park's visitor volume also surpasses #5 Fiordland by 4 million, underscoring its ease of access from Calgary. Banff gives front-row seats to glaciers calving into emerald waters, with over 1,600 km of trails.
