Canada Travel Guide
Canada's draw for most international visitors is its scale and its wilderness — the Canadian Rockies, in particular, deliver mountain scenery that's genuinely hard to match, reachable via Calgary. Summers open up hiking and the classic turquoise-lake views; winters turn the same region into a ski destination.
Best time to visit
June to September for hiking and the classic lake views; December to March for skiing.
Destinations in Canada
North America
Banff National Park
Canada
Turquoise glacial lakes, snow-capped peaks, and wildlife-filled valleys make Banff one of the most dramatic landscapes in the Canadian Rockies. Lake Louise and Moraine Lake alone are worth the trip.
North America
Vancouver
Canada
Vancouver sits between the ocean and the North Shore mountains closely enough that both are visible from most of downtown, with Stanley Park's seawall and Granville Island's market anchoring a city built for walking and biking.
