Dog Friendly Banff
Where To Stay And Walk With Your Dog In Banff
Banff is a mountain town in the Canadian Rockies, the only town inside Banff National Park, and the peaks stand at the end of every street. The Bow River runs through it, Bow Falls is a short walk from the centre, and trails, lakes and viewpoints begin within minutes of the main street. Inside the national park dogs stay on a lead at all times, which keeps them safe from the elk and the bears and still leaves hundreds of miles of trail. It is one of the great mountain towns of the world.

Dog Friendly Bars & Restaurants In Banff
Looking for dog friendly bars, restaurants, cafes or taprooms in Banff? Here is the honest answer: Canadian health law keeps dogs out of nearly every indoor bar and restaurant in the country, Banff included, so in the warmer months a licensed patio is your best bet. It is a rule that badly needs changing, and Let Dogs In is our campaign to welcome well-behaved dogs into Canadian bars and taprooms, the way they already are across Europe.
