2 amazingly beautiful places, only 5 hours apart! We couldn't miss the opportunity to see both Glacier National Park and Banff National Park on our trip out west. This 8-day itinerary (including travel days) allows you to see the highlights of both. Realistically, we could have spent a month in Banff and not run out of things to do. Now we have a great feel for the area and will definitely be back again! This trip was taken the last week of August into the first week of September.
