  • Went here for a concert in the cave event. Parks staff were awesome and extremely informative. They know a lot of information and can answer a ton of questions not only of the cave but other areas as well. Also you can see the Banff Snails that live in the hot springs, An Endangered Species only found in a small pool of water. This spot has some amazing scenery as well.

    This is the humble beginning of Canada Parks that was practically a hot spring vacation spot. There is a multi-media gallery showing its brief history, nicely done though not much depth. The cave is again like a hot spring pool and was probably used that way. It is nice to visit when admission is free for Canada 150 celebration. Otherwise admission fee is better spent elsewhere in my opinion.

  • Free with the Parks Pass and worth a visit. Has nice views of the mountains. You can't touch the hot springs here. Learn about the history of the area. A good stop for a rainy day.

  • Being that is this the heart of Banff national park it is a beautiful area. You need to go and check out the Sulfur hot springs. It stinks like hell but it is so amazing that people used to bathe in there. The hike is amazing along the river up to the falls. We were not able to go the whole way because it was still snowed in when we went.
