Bow Falls - Banff

Hello!

I have some more beautiful photos to show you from my Banff trip in May. This time, photos of the Bow Falls.

We were very lucky to have sunny long weekend so we could explore Banff National Park more thoroughly. We were in no rush because we have been to Banff before. Therefore, we were able to skip a few classic sights and instead find something new.

The bus routes were very helpful when finding new destinations. There is a few bus routes available and each has two ends which means there is a lot of options. All you need is hip on the bus and leave when you’re ready.

Bow Falls were one of the sights we didn’t take the bus to since we visited it on our last day in Banff so we were already checked out of our hotel and were on our way home. It wasn’t a long ride, it took us just few minutes to get to the pretty busy parking.

We thought we will be one of the early birds there but we were wrong. The parking lot was almost full, even in the morning. I saw lots of tourist buses dropping people off. We managed to get a space and took almost an hour to look around.

The sound of the Bow Falls was very loud but relaxing. It really made us feel we are in the wilderness. Astonishing nature!

There was also a take off point for rafters and kayakers. If I would have a longer vacation I would probably want to experience rafting. I never had that opportunity here in Alberta.

For those that prefer to stay on the land, I saw a group of tourists on horses. There you have another one for the bucket list.

I must say that this was one of the better unplanned trips I had so far.

A lot of fun, a lot of sun and a lot of photos by the end of the trip.

Of course there would be no such trip without my amazing boyfriend who volunteered to drive all the way from Edmonton and back.

Hope everyone is having a great Thursday. If not, remember that the weekend is close!
