Hello Rocky Mountains! I love a good mountain town and Banff is one of the most beautiful areas in Canada. There are endless hiking trails, lakes, rivers & mountains to be explored! Not to mention an adorable Main Street with cute cafes & shops. Summer & early fall is the best time to visit, especially if you are not a winter person!

When you reach Banff you will need to purchase a “Parks Canada” pass. The pass only lasts for one day unless you purchase the yearly pass. It’s $20 a day.

Transportation

My hometown was a six hour drive from Banff so luckily we had our own car.

Hi! I’m Emily & I am a certified travel adviser based in the Pacific Northwest! My sister (my traveling buddy) and I love to travel to destinations that have an amazing local food scene, proximity to the outdoors and have a strong sense of culture & design. We like to travel with a balance between luxury & budget! We have been traveling together for six years and I spend hours researching our destinations to find unique places & things to do but also keeping in the classics. Here on Thatch, I create super detailed guides and itineraries to destinations that we have personally visited or plan on visiting. These destinations have everything we love about travel! Among tips and tricks for each destination I also always include the best spots for coffee, local shopping & the best boutique hotels to stay!
