Parkers Ridge
Parkers Ridge can technically be a Banff hike.
Situated just south of the Banff/Jasper border this amazing hike is short and great for day hike and picnic setting.
Parkers Ridge has a spectacular view throughout the hike. After reaching the summit, you will be able to see a glimpse of Saskatchewan glacier.
Also in the winter ski touring is quite popular. Watch out for avalanche dangers here, it has taken some unfortunate souls.
