Car Hire Banff

Located in western Canada, the mountain village continues to be a major holiday destination and Auto Europe has great rates on car hire in Banff. This unique resort town is the first community to ever be incorporated within the boundaries of a national park. During the construction of the Canadian Pacific Railway, workers stumbled upon the steaming geothermic baths for which the town is so famous. Since then people have flocked to Banff in order to bathe in the mineral-rich hot springs as they enjoy the wonders of Banff National Park.

Car hire in Banff will help you make your way to the different part of the National Park and discover over 6,000 square kilometres of protected mountains, lakes, rivers and wildlife. The park has endless trails which weave through the landscape offering hikers of any level an adventure that suits them. With your very own car take Route 1A through the Bow Valley Parkway for an amazing country cruise or spend a relaxing afternoon on the banks of Lake Louise.

Banff Upper Hot Springs was once a sacred place of healing for Native Canadians. This paradise high in the Canadian Rockies has been attracting people from far and wide for over a century. Soak your stress away in one of the soothing basins while being overwhelmed by majestic mountain scenes. As afternoons tend to be busier, it's worth coming during mornings and being stunned by the beautiful sunrises.

Try a journey on the Banff Gondola offering breathtaking views without the physical exertion. Seating four passengers, the gondola is completely enclosed and rises over 2,200 metre (7,500 feet) to the top of Sulphur Mountain. Have your camera prepared to capture some amazing shots of the scenery and the wildlife below (people regularly see Grizzlies, Black Timber Wolves and Lynx.) When you reach the Upper Summit Terminal you will find a restaurant surrounded by graceful promenades with spectacular views.
