I am fortunate enough to live in one of the most beautiful places in the world, and I am reminded of this each time I visit Banff and the surrounding areas.

The slopes: Carve Champagne powder at three world-class ski resorts
The history: Discover where it all began at the Cave & Basin National Historic Site, or pay a visit to the famous Castle in the Rockies.
The great outdoors: There's year-round fun to be had. Explore hikes with unbeatable views, paddle a turquoise lake, watch for wildlife, or discover the magic of winter in the mountains.

With 85% of the world's population no longer able to see a true night sky, a visit to the Rothney Astrophysical Observatory is a special treat. We are fortunate to be in one of the few remaining areas of the world that can boast about having true dark skies. I have been able to photograph both the Milky Way and Aurora Borealis around Southern Alberta, and this is a very cool spot where you can experience it as well.

Viewpoint: In summer, hike to the famous tea house, about a two-hour trip upwards. Lake Louise will look like a big turquoise cocktail. Expect to get approximately one billion photo ops and a fierce appetite en route.

Fort Calgary is culturally and historically significant. It is located at Bow and Elbow Rivers' confluence, which is a part of a vast, dynamic and unfolding territory rooted in stories and lifeways of Blackfoot, Nakoda, Tsuu’tina, and Métis peoples. These distinct and diverse worldviews and communities have developed here over thousands of years and are still active today.
Fort Calgary has a layered history. It has always been Niitawasi (Blackfoot Territory) and was a location for meetings, celebrations, ceremonies, hunting, harvesting, trade, and so much more. Because this place already held significance for Indigenous peoples, the Northwest Mounted Police built a fort here in 1875. When you visit the Fort Calgary museum, you will learn more about the histories of this place and the northwest Mounted Police's roles in bringing Canada to Niitawasi. We encourage all those who visit this place to learn and recognize this site's truthful and complex histories. It is a place to reconnect with the land, people, the past, and the present through the various experiences we offer: exhibits, public programs, venue rentals, education programs, and volunteering.

We supply the tubes, and our purpose-built magic carpet towing system will pull you to the top of our specially groomed tubing lanes, so there’s no need to walk uphill after each ride.
Just take a seat, hold onto the handles and get sliding! Feel the wind rushing through your hair as your family’s grins spread from ear to ear. Hear the sounds of laughter and pumping music as you tube.
For extra fun, challenge your group to a friendly competition – who will get the most points for speed, style and number of spins?
