The Banff Sign is unsurprisingly, classic Banff. If you don't take a photo here, did you really even go?! You'll find the sign when heading in and out of town on Mount Norquay Road, usually with a line of people waiting to take pics.
You'll find a huge parking lot right across the street at the Fenlands Recreation Centre. There is an easy pedestrian crossing to cross the road and access the sign. Bathrooms are also inside if needed.
Today when my friends and I went, there was a fella selling photos for $2 a person so for our 5 adults it was $10. It was just a regular fella and we didn't find them better than our cameras, but if you needed some pics, he was there!
Installed in 2017, it apparently caused a lot of traffic for the city so if you're driving by, exercise patience and caution with pedestrians.
Must do while in Banff! read more
