With some awesome day trip options available in the surrounding area, having your own car makes sense. Without one, it’d be much more difficult to enjoy everything that Lake Louise, 30 miles away, has to offer. Herbert Lake should be at the top of your list here. Olympic Chair Ski Lift and Glacier Express Quad Ski Lift are fantastic attractions too. Don’t miss Field either! Just 40 miles away, Yoho National Park, Emerald Lake and Takakkaw Falls are essential stops here.
