Banff is a national park. Parks Canada says you need a Park Pass if you stop anywhere in the park, including the towns, viewpoints and picnic areas, or if you drive the Bow Valley Parkway or Icefields Parkway. You don't need one if you drive straight through on the Trans-Canada without stopping. Current pass rules · fees (Parks Canada; checked November 2, 2026).
Moraine Lake Road is closed to personal vehicles all year. Go by Parks Canada shuttle (May to October, reservation required), Roam Public Transit (year-round), or a licensed commercial operator. Parks Canada access details (checked November 2, 2026).
Roam Public Transit runs local and regional routes around Banff, Canmore and Lake Louise. See roamtransit.com for routes and fares.
Walkable, with the most restaurants and shops, and close to Roam buses and the ski shuttles. Usually the priciest base.
About 20 minutes east, outside the park boundary. Often better value, with more condos and kitchens.
Quieter, with few beds. Closest to the lakes and the Lake Louise ski resort. Book early in summer.
