What you’ll do

Visiting Canadian Rockies for 7 days in summer and want to see the best of best? This itinerary is for you!

PS: The itinerary is adjusted to the days with shortest daylight of the year, you may be able to fit more things in if visiting later in the winter. Note that the itinerary starts in Banff and ends in Jasper, so you might have to count extra time/aays for getting from/to airport.

Start the day with a drive to Lake Minnewanka and make sure to stop at Two Jack Lake on the way.

Banff Upper Hot Springs are located right next to the gondola, so might as well do this when you're there. Just note that the entrance is a first come first serve.
