Hi, Iām Emilie š
I was born and raised in Canada (in Quebec) and moved to the foothills of the Canadian Rockies in 2020. Since then, Iāve spent countless days exploring Banff, Jasper, Yoho, Kananaskis, and the Icefields Parkway with my family, in every season.
I know what itās like to plan a Banff trip for the first time. Figuring out where to stay, whatās actually worth visiting, how to avoid wasting time driving back and forth, and how to make it all work with kids can quickly be overwhelming.
And honestly? I love the planning part just as much as the trip itself. (You can ask my husband how many PowerPoint presentations heās had to sit through before each trip š
)
This guide is built from real experience, not just online research. Iāve tested the routes, visited the stops, dealt with the crowds, and found the lesser-known places that often end up becoming the highlight of the trip.
