Fishing

LAKE MINNEWANKA BOAT FISHING
Considered to be one of the top ten Lake Trout fisheries in Canada, Lake Minnewanka is the largest lake in Banff National Park and is less than 9km (5 miles) from Banff town site. This 25km long lake, with depths of up to 130 metres, is home to trophy size Lake Trout and Rocky Mountain Whitefish. *Advanced Reservations Required.

RIVER FISHING 
The Bow River in Alberta is one of the finest trout rivers in the world. Just below the Banff town site, the Bow River winds its way through the mountains of Banff National Park and out through the front ranges of the Rocky Mountains to the prairies, boasting 40km (25 miles) of catch and release waters. This section of the Bow River is still a freestone mountain river. The wild and wary trout in the river make for exceptional sport. Float and Wade or Walk and Wade excursions are available. *Advanced Reservations Required.
