14. Hike To An Alpine Teahouse

Some of the hiking trails in the park include alpine teahouses that you will see along the way. This provides visitors with yet another fun and unique experience. For those not in the know, an alpine teahouse is a small cabin on a hiking trail that offers hikers various snacks and tea that’s actually made from real local glacial water.

They generally serve sandwiches, cookies, and, of course, tea. So you’re getting a little taste of the park by stopping here. There are two hiking trails in the park that include teahouses.  

They are Plain of Six Glaciers and Lake Agnes. Visit in the summer though because that’s the only time they are open for business. They don’t have electricity and only accept cash. So be sure to have some Canadian currency on you.  

 

15. Sample Alberta’s Locally-Sourced Dishes

Banff town is also home to a number of different, distinctive, amazing eateries where you can sample an assortment of dishes from specialty meats and vegan bites. A few of the local restaurants worth patronizing include the restaurant-distiller combination called Park Distillery. Saltlik specializes in enticing meat dishes.

The Bison Restaurant offers a meal with a view and a choice of both vegetarian and meat dishes. Try Nourish Bistro too. It’s a healthy eatery with a relaxed atmosphere that features an impressive assortment of amazing curries.
