Located along the Bow River, the Castle Mountain Viewpoint offers stunning views of one of Banff’s most iconic peaks. Known for its distinctive, jagged ridgeline, Castle Mountain is a favorite among photographers, and this viewpoint is a great spot to capture it in all its glory.

Beyond just being a photo op, it’s a peaceful place to pause and take in the breathtaking surroundings, with the river winding through the valley and the towering peak dominating the skyline. Whether you're snapping pictures or simply enjoying the scenery, this easy-to-access viewpoint is a perfect stop on your journey through Banff.
