Discover the wild side of Banff National Park on a small-group evening wildlife tour. Through some of the park’s most scenic landscapes, you can observe native animals up close during this guided experience.
As the day winds down, head out with your local guide to explore some Banff wildlife viewing areas.
Keep watch for elk, bighorn sheep, deer and other animals. Additionally, you travel through spectacular mountain landscapes during the quieter evening hours.
Your route may include areas around Lake Minnewanka, Two Jack Lake, Vermilion Lakes and other wildlife-viewing locations. Rather than following the exact same route every day, your guide can adjust the experience based on seasonal conditions, recent wildlife activity, weather and road conditions.
Travelling in a comfortable small-group vehicle gives you the opportunity to explore several areas of the park while your guide shares information about Banff’s wildlife, landscapes and the places you visit.
Evenings are a beautiful time to experience Banff. The mountains take on a different atmosphere as the crowds begin to thin and the light changes across the Rockies. Depending on the season, your tour may also coincide with golden hour or sunset.
A Different Tour Every Evening
Wildlife is wild, and sightings can never be guaranteed. That’s part of what makes each tour different.
Your guide will use local knowledge and recent observations to choose the evening’s route and give you the best possible wildlife-viewing experience while respecting the animals and Parks Canada wildlife-viewing guidelines.
Even when wildlife proves elusive, you’ll experience some of Banff National Park’s most beautiful landscapes during one of the most atmospheric times of day.
