Banff at $139 RT

Forget pumpkin spice—autumn in Banff is gilded in real gold.

No, not the kind you keep in vaults—the kind that crunches under hiking boots and turns entire mountainsides into shimmering cathedrals of larches.

For a few glorious weeks, the Rockies trade in their rugged look for something downright regal. Trails like Larch Valley and Sentinel Pass become golden carpets, and suddenly, you’re not hiking—you’re strolling through nature’s private art gallery, painted in 24-karat foliage.

So grab your hiking boots and favourite plaid shirt—Banff’s golden hour doesn’t last long :-)
