Store Your Luggage Around Banff With Bounce

Located inside Banff National Park, this resort town offers breathtaking views of Mount Rundle and Mount Cascade. You can even catch a glimpse of the Rocky Mountains. Banff was not incorporated into a governing municipality until 1990. Up until then, it was a service center for Alberta tourism. It was also home to Canada’s indigenous peoples for over 10,000 years. Banff was the first municipality in Canada to be incorporated inside a national park. There is only one other city inside a national park, Jasper, which is located inside Jasper National Park. Banff is unique in that there is an overlap in the authority over the town. The local government must work closely with the Alberta and federal governments to ensure the park and town are well-preserved and appropriately governed. 

Banff draws thousands of visitors each year and has expanded to offer services dedicated to tourists, such as park tours, adventure tours, and unique shopping experiences for fanciful and practical souvenirs. Banff has grown into a bustling metropolis with fantastic restaurants, interesting attractions, and plenty of small-town charm to keep people coming back time and time again.
