Simple as That

Making Everyday Beautiful

Outdoor Family Adventures | Banff, Canada

Tuesday, May 12, 2015

Outdoor Family Adventures – Summer is almost here and we couldn’t be more excited to kick off our 2015 Outdoor Family Adventure Series! It’s all about getting active, reconnecting and making lasting memories as a family in the great outdoors. Join us in June as we explore all that beautiful Banff, Canada has to offer!

A love of nature was instilled in me very early on in life by my parents and my grandparents. I have many fond memories of spending time with my family camping, hiking and enjoying nature. The great outdoors served as the backdrop to many precious childhood memories for me and as a mother of four now myself, it’s been a priority to provide those same, long-lasting memories for my own children.

On all of our outdoor adventures, it’s been such a joy to watch my kids build a connection with the world around them, while at the same time strengthening family connections. Exploring the beauty of the world around us, without the distractions of daily life, does so much to bring us closer together as a family and I know the memories we’re making will last a lifetime.

        Johntson Canyon, Johnson Lake and Fenland tail are all great for day trips with little ones. Although not inside Banff the quarry in Canmore is a great place to go for a swim on a hot day. This is a great website for trip ideas: http://www.rockiesfamilyadventures.com
