Holidays at Banff in the Canadian Rockies
5
nappy, carefree expeditions into
XL the Canadian Rockies, com-
fortably far from the .routine of
civilization, are among the many
health-givinll' amusements avail-
able to visitors at the Banff -
Springs Hotel, at Banff, Alberta,
this season. These expeditions
can be made on horseback with
the Trail Riders of the Canadian
Rockies, or on ,foot with the Trail
Hikers. Both organizations are
based in the Banff-Spr(ngs hotel,
where riding, hiking, golf, tennis
and swimming are but a few of
the vigorous activities which con-
tribute to the success of it moun-
tain holiday.
Physical fitness must be among
the first personal rules of every
citizen of the Allied countries in
these days when the stress and
strain' of war makes exceptional
demands an everyone. Holidays
this year are being planned with
increased fitness in view, and this
is particularly true of Canadians,
and visitors from the united
States, who are including Banff
in their holiday itinerary.
Canadian Pacific Railway, in
keeping with this spirit, has ar-
ranged extremely low American
Plan rates on a weekly or month-
ly basis, and these cover a really
magnificent holiday and provide
a complete escape from the
spectre of gas, oil, and rubber.
There is no joy greater than
riding a sure -:footed mountain
pony along far-flung scenic trails,
or in hiking above the clouds
along what is literally the sky
line;
The Banff -Springs Hotel golf
course is internationally famous
and justly so and is a continual
challenge to experts and "ama-
teurs alike, There is much to do
at Banff and a splendid holiday
in the doing,
