Town of Banff

Biking

Enjoy the mountain bike trails around Banff

Biking is a great way to enjoy Banff National Park.

Rental bikes are available at numerous outlets in the Town of Banff. Some local tour operators provide guided bicycle tours and a shuttle & ride service.

Street cycling routes within town are marked by sharrows on pavement. Sharrows mean motorists must share the road with cyclists.

Paved and unpaved trails are also suitable for biking.

New trails on Tunnel Mountain, including sweet single-track, connect mountain bikers to magnificent views overlooking Mount Rundle, Spray Valley and the renowned Hoodoos—those spire-like rocks that jut majestically out of the landscape.

The Legacy Trail, a paved trail from the East Gate to the Town of Banff, and from Vermillion Lake to Bow Valley Parkway is an excellent family activity.
