@mtnorquay 🏔️ The Via Ferrata makes it possible for anyone who wants to experience the awe and buzz of steep and exposed mountain top climbing, scrambling and hiking within a super safe and controlled environment. This type of experience is normally only accessible to people with years of mountaineering experience and training but the guides, setup, and safety measures that are in place make this feel so safe and enjoyable. 😁 This was truly one of the most memorable days of summer for us. Come experience one of the best days ever up at @mtnorquay with one of their incredible guides. Ours was @_gregory_hall and we can’t speak highly enough about the amazing time we had. Put this on your list of “MUST DO” activities in Banff!

Here’s another one from our friend @samhobleyphoto who captured this shot of Mount Rundle during the huge geomagnetic storm back in May. Make sure to head over to his account for more amazing shots around Banff and beyond.
The Devil’s Thumb/Big Beehive hike at Lake Louise has got to be one of the best bang for your buck hikes in Banff. Taking approximately 3 hours to complete the 12km up and back trek (depending on your hiking ability) it offers incredible views of Mirror Lake, Lake Agnes and of course Lake Louise from high above. Just make sure you get there early to avoid the crowds!
