Fenland loop

A short forest-and-wetland loop beside town. Pair it with the river or Vermilion Lakes without a big driving day.

Walk or drive

45–60 minutes · 5 min drive from Banff*

Where to park · how to get there

Use the signed Fenland trailhead parking if available. The train station public lot is an alternative starting point for a longer walk; respect its nine-hour limit.
