Surprise Corner Viewpoint in Banff town - Bow River and Fairmont Springs hotel Scenic view
#banff #surprisecorner #banffspringshotel #fairmont #canadianrockies #lvfree
The surprise at the corner on Tunnel Mountain Road in the town of Banff is the sudden appearance and incredible view of the Banff Springs Hotel. The beautiful building known as the “Castle Of The Rockies” sits in the backdrop of Sulphur Mountain while in the foreground the majestic Bow River cascades down into the Bow Falls. This famous and iconic view of the hotel is promoted all over the world. There are historic pictures, paintings and postcards that date back to the late 1800’s.
There is no sign marking the view point. I’m not sure that Surprise Corner is an official name, most likely it’s something that the locals came up with. From downtown Banff it’s a five minute drive. You can access the corner from Banff Avenue by driving along to the top end of Buffalo Street, it turns into Tunnel Mountain Drive. A sudden view of the hotel will appear on the right hand side. Walking from town takes approximately half an hour. Near the view is a parking space. Across the street is an viewing platform, watch for traffic as you cross the road.
The best time for lighting is in late morning or mid-day. A small parking area sits at the bend in the road just past the observation deck.

Came around the corner and out of no where I see the head of this deer peak around the front of the car. I stopped and let him politely cross the street!

Hey Friends,

If you are ever in Banff it is a short walk up to surprise corner to catch this view and a beautiful walk along the Bow River. There is also the option to drive but just an FYI, very limited parking.

캐나다 밴프 Viewpoint 4. #Surprise Corner Viewpoint
밴프의 유서 깊은 호텔인 Fairmont Banff Springs를 가장 아름답게 볼 수 있는 곳. 밴프 시내에서 걸어서 25분 정도 걸리는데 약간 숨이 찹니다. Buffalo Street를 따라 쭉 올라가면 나옵니다. #Surprise Viewpoint#밴프한국식품점#Townhouse Groceteria
Downtown Banff, Alberta, Canada
A look at the Historic Town of Banff. I visited in mid-July.
Banff is a resort town in the province of Alberta, located within Banff National Park. The peaks of Mt. Rundle and Mt. Cascade, part of the Rocky Mountains, dominate its skyline. On Banff Avenue, the main thoroughfare, boutiques and restaurants mix with château-style hotels and souvenir shops. The surrounding 6,500 square kilometers of parkland are home to wildlife including elk and grizzly bears.
Day 3 - Banff Surprise Corner Viewpoint, Icefield Parkway, Peyto Lake Lookout, Athabasca Falls
This is our last day in Banff and we're driving to Jasper via the scenic Icefield Parkway. We first stopped at Banff Surprise corner viewpoint, which overlooks the famous Chateau Fairmont Hotel. It looks like a real life Disney castle! The trailhead for the Hoodoos Trail can also be found here. After a few life-risking photographs on top of a rock, we stopped for breakfast at McDonald's. This video is not sponsored by McDonald's but for some reason, we are just so fond of the brand. Ok???? From Banff, we drove to Peyto Lake Lookout. You have to hike for about 10 minutes I think before you get there. And the view? just jaw-dropping beautiful! Along the highway, you'll also find many rest areas that you can pull over and take instagrammable photos. We did not stop at any of the falls because we were not sure if our gas is enough to make it to Jasper. The drive was so much fun especially if you're in a car-a-oke plus the endless magnificent view of the Rockies made it all more amazing! The next day, we stopped for coffee and fresh baked scones and muffins at Bear Paws in Jasper. So yummy! We continued on to Athabasca Falls for the rest of the morning. I feel so lucky to be able to see all these wonderful creations! Lesson learned from this trip, make sure you gas up at Lake Louise or Banff before hitting the road. I think there's only one gas station along the highway and at the time we badly needed to gas up, it was closed.
