How to See Alberta (10-Day Suggested Itinerary) (Updated 2025)

"I recommend starting with the iconic Johnston Canyon in Banff — you can keep it short with a 30-minute walk to the Lower Falls or plan a full four-hour trek to the Ink Pots depending on how much time and energy you have." - Matthew Kepnes
