There are a number of different lookout points in the park. However, the appropriately-named Surprise Corner is one of the best. When you get to this popular albeit unofficial attraction, you will truly understand why it’s called that.
It offers travelers amazing panoramic views of the beautiful Bow Valley, and the Banff Springs Hotel thrusting up out of the verdant evergreens. Ah, but remember there is no official sign marking this viewpoint. Surprise Corner is found roughly five minutes out of the park on Tunnel Mountain Road not too far from town. You will know it by the scintillating scenic views.
5 .Chase Waterfalls
Don’t go jumping waterfalls. It’s good advice. However, feel free to chase them in Banff. The park features a lot of waterfalls, and you can see them all “up close and personal.”
You will find some of them on hiking trails such as Bow Falls or Johnston Canyon. You can reach other waterfalls via stand-up paddleboard or kayak. Some of the park’s most popular waterfalls here are the Bow Falls, the Bow Glacier Falls, the Johnston Canyon Falls, and the Sundance Falls.
