Breathtaking Banff National Park is a charmed place in winter. With its frozen canyons, snow-capped mountains, soothing hot springs, world-class ski resorts, and cozy lodges, it is a winter wonderland for outdoor adventure lovers, snow sports enthusiasts, and romantics like me. Though my wife will laugh at that last thought – it cannot be argued that the warm wintry experiences in Banff and Lake Louise are more enjoyable when shared with someone special.
