    I HIGHLY recommend visiting to everyone that can!! My partner and I were lucky enough to vacation here and it was one of the best weeks of my life!! The mountains and streams and all of the hiking trails are just breathtaking and there is nothing better after a long day of exploring and hiking than to finish things off by relaxing in one of the natural hot springs. We definitely plan to go back soon and visit as many times as we can!! A piece of my heart will always belong to Banff and the surrounding areas in Alberta Canada!!

      I live in this region, and although I am the first to say there are many, many, beauty spots on planet earth, the constant voting for this region by our visitors as one of the best in the World is very gratifying, especially since that until recently Western Canada was an unknown place for most people. There are countless hidden treasures off the main highways on side roads and if one has the adventurous spirit and physical ability, off the side roads on trails. Many places known to locals rarely make it onto these travel videos, one of many examples being 150 km / 90 mile long Kootenay Lake, the largest natural lake in the Rocky Mountain / Columbia Mountain region and surrounded by high steep mountains, quaint ex-mining towns, evergreen forests and lots of wildlife. Quiet narrow highways wind along the lakeshore, good but narrow gravel roads lead to forest-fire lookouts high above the lake, and a well-developed hot spring at Ainsworth is on the lakeshore. The town of Nelson, located on the lake, has many art galleries, eclectic restaurants, and numerous historic buildings, and a free government ferry boat transports people and vehicles across the lake many times a day.
