"The last of the three Banff restaurants to be featured in OpenTable Top 100 and the only five-diamond restaurant west of Ottawa, Eden is a fine dining experience like no other. The butler-like service at Eden remarks a past-time era of elegance and class.

It’s also a great spot for a quick photoshoot with the bridal party, and can easily be accessed through the back streets even on the busiest days of summer."

"The east side of Banff is dominated by the Tunnel Mountains, another scenic loop drive you don’t want to miss out on. If you’ve ever wanted to scale a mountain, here’s your chance. You can drive your way up to Banff’s smallest summit and enjoy some 360 degrees of stunning vistas."

"I love natural playgrounds, and this one does a great job of blending into the stunning scenery. The playground features slides, a climbing wall, and several fallen trees and tree stumps for climbing. On the other side of the park, there’s a faux-mountain that kids can climb or run underneath (there’s a small opening in the middle)."

"Banff gets hip with a microdistillery to complement its microbrewery, plying spirits (gin, vodka and whiskey) and beer made from Alberta's foothills' grain. It all goes down perfectly with a mesquite beef hoagie,..."

"We’ve tried several Canmore sushi restaurants, but we always come back to Mii Sushi. Whether we eat in or order takeout, we feel that Mii Sushi has the best sushi in Canmore. Everyone’s tastes are different , of course, but our favorited at This excellent Canmore sushi restaurant are the tuna sashimi, salmon sushi I, the Mii house special roll, the mango salmon roll and the Flames roll."

"Commonly known as ‘Sushi Train’, this restaurant serves up a wide assortment of sushi, sashimi, and small plate Japanese eats on – you guessed it – a model train!. It will circle the track around a chef crafting the pieces right before your eyes. Cozy up to your dinner mate and even make a few new friends at their bar-style seating for up to 18 people."

"What could be cooler than being served a wide assortment of sushi, sashimi, and small-plate Japanese treats via a model Rocky Mountaineer train that circles a track as the chef crafts pieces before your eyes?. Part dining, all entertainment, Sushi House Banff is known by locals as the “Sushi Train” for good reason."
