The park, located 110-180 kilometres west of Calgary in the province of Alberta, encompasses 6,641 square kilometres of mountainous terrain, with numerous glaciers and ice fields, dense coniferous forest, and alpine landscapes. The Icefields Parkway extends from Lake Louise, connecting to Jasper National Park in the north. Provincial forests and Yoho National Park are neighbours to the west, while Kootenay National Park is located to the south and Kananaskis Country to the southeast. The main commercial centre of the park is the town of Banff, in the Bow River valley.
- Banff National Park was the oldest and most famous park in Canada. Located just west of Alberta in the Rocky Mountains. First started by 3 young railway workers prospecting the place when they came across a basin pool and saw a mysterious hole beside the pool. The goverment were told and put it as a reserved area (which later grew and became Banff National Park).
