Banff national park



Banff National Park is situated in Alberta, about 130 km west of Calgary and
850 km east of Vancouver. It was founded in the year 1885.
Banff is Canada\'s most visited national park because of its spectacular

topography and its wildlife.
There live more than 53 species of mammals, including grizzlies and black
bears, mountain lions, lynx, elk, mountain goats and some species of deer.
Furthermore, there\'s a great combination of mountains, lakes and forests,
which makes it quite popular. The most attractive places of Banff are the
area around the hot springs and Lake Louis, the crown jewel of Banff
National Park and the most famous sight in the Canadian Rockies with
fantastic Victoria Glacier in the back.
As a result of such beauty more than 4 million people to Banff National Park
every year.They can stay at the comfortable Hotel Lake Louis, in other
hotels in the area, in recreational-vehicles or in tents.
SPOTLIGHT gets some information about the National Park from Bradly
Bischoff, a Banff National Park press officer, who works as a backcountry
warden.
It is his job to look after nature and to advise tourists to stay on hiking
tracks and to beware of wild animals, especially of bears, which can be
deadly when disturbed. It is not allowed to feed wild animals. Mr. Bischoff
says that animals are clever enough to find food. He also mentions that all
visitors are responsible for their food supplies. One camping ground had to
be closed because a bear found out that it was very easy to get food from

there.
People are allowed to take pictures, go walking, hiking, mountain biking and
fishing, but they must respect the rules. Disregarding the rules can lead to
court appearances and fines of up to C$ 2000.
But if you behave in the right way, I am sure you can spend great holidays
there and you will get several unforgetable impressions of this wonderful
region around Lake Louis.
