Planning a trip to Banff on Family Day weekend? Here's some inspiration! Our two-day, Family Magic action-packed itinerary is the perfect way to enjoy all the fun Banff has to offer! 📅

❄️Start your adventure with our Winter Activity Pass is the perfect way to keep the little ones entertained and happy. Start your day by heading to Mount Norquay for the excitement of snow tubing! It’s like tobogganing, but with a special towing system that brings you back to the top effortlessly.

After a morning of fun on the slopes, take the family to the Banff Gondola for stunning panoramic views and capture your next family portrait!

❄️On day two, take advantage of the rental portion of your Winter Activity Pass by grabbing some skates from our Banff Adventures store, then head over to Lake Louise. Skating on the lake is a must-do bucket list experience you won’t want to miss. If skating isn’t your thing, why not try snowshoeing around the lake instead?

Wrap up your day back in Banff with an afternoon sleigh ride. Surrounded by majestic mountains and guided by friendly cowboy experts, your little explorers will end their Banff adventure with big smiles!

Exploring on your own can be incredibly rewarding, and renting equipment is one of the best ways to do it. With an abundance of world class trails around Banff, the possibilities for adventure are limitless!

❄️ Snowshoes are a unique and fun way to enjoy the incredible powder! It's a quintessential Canadian outing that everyone in the family can partake in!

🎿There are dozens of groomed paths and track set trails around Banff, Lake Louise & Canmore to cross country ski on, taking you through amazing winter scenery.

⛸️ Spend the day or evening on the ice! Glide across the famous Lake Louise or visit one of Banff's local ice rinks. The Banff Recreational Grounds provide panoramic views of the surrounding mountain range!

🥾With ice cleats, you can confidently navigate and ascend icy paths! One of our personal favorites is Tunnel Mountain, located just a short five-minute drive from Downtown Banff. The trail ascends the peak and reveals spectacular vistas of the Bow Valley—this experience is one you won’t want to miss!
