Paddle up the scenic Bow River

Join an unforgettable early evening canoe tour and immerse yourself in a world of fascinating facts about animal habitats, behaviours, and conservation efforts. Leave behind the bustling streets of Banff and reconnect with nature at its finest.


Enjoy paddling up the scenic Bow while keeping your eyes peeled for some of the locals - bald eagles, elk, muskrats and maybe even “Barry”, the resident beaver.

Learn best practices for wildlife encounters and discover the challenges they face with increasing human interaction. You can’t get a more scenic backdrop for an interpretive wildlife tour. This tour includes a guide, a life jacket, and a paddle. You can expect it to last about 1.5 hours.
