Banff Guide

By Rebecca_Shugart

My basics and essentials we brought with us on our Banff National Park trip!

Here are the staples I had in my hiking pack everyday for our Banff trip! Of course we had snacks and lunch to-go, but these are things I made sure to have with me every day! 

Our 4 year old spent half the trip in this awesome kid carrier pack. It comes with a sun shade! 

The 35L pack held everything I needed it too and more comfortably!

I recommend having TWO portable phone chargers just in case!
Thankfully we never had to use our đŸ» spray but you won’t want to hike in the Rockies without it. 

Hiking poles ended up being a HUGE help for me and for my daughter! 

A lightweight water bottle is essential because the less weight the better climbing steep mountains. 

Last but not least mosquito spray wipes are very convenient and a first aid kit is a must because accidents do happen out on the trails and you will want to be prepared!

These are my favorite basics I brought with me to Banff! 

The Patagonia fleece is unmatched in warmth. Even in mid August the mornings can be chilly! 

Speaking of chilly, you’ll want a beanie to have to keep your head warm for those early morning hikes  

This yellow rain jacket is outside my normal color scheme BUT wearing this bright color really pops in photos up against the unreal blue water of the Canadian Rockies lakes! 

Leggings with pockets for your phone while hiking of course. 

My favorite REI running shorts that are the perfect length for hiking because they don’t bunch up at all between my legs! 

Also listed my FAVORITE hiking boot and trail shoes. Danner is such a high quality long-lasting brand! Along with my favorite Amazon hiking socks! They aren’t too bulky, keep my feet very warm and dry. 

And some cute national parks tees just to be on brand   😆

Basics my daughter and husband used each day on our Banff trip! 
The Columbia fleece jacket was perfect for chilly mornings ! This isn’t the exact rain jacket my daughter had, but the red color looks great in pictures against the scenery in Banff! 
She wore leggings everyday under her shorts to protect her legs and a beanie in the mornings! 

These Keen hiking boots held up SO well for her hiking through the Rockies. 

My husband’s favorite rain jacket is his one from REI. He loves wearing moisture wicking shirts to stay cool for hiking. 
He has a pair of HOKA hiking boots that he swears by. They don’t make the ones he has anymore but these are very close! Having ankle support is a must!
