❄️ Welcome to the largest snow tubing park in Alberta, Canada! The Mount Norquay Snow Tube Park is just 5 minutes from downtown Banff and is the perfect family-friendly way to enjoy the slopes.
🏔️ Not much makes you feel like a kid again like the thrill of racing down a snow-covered hill on an inflatable tube in the fresh mountain air. Mount Norquay has 8 tubing lanes (the longest in Alberta, Canada) and a magic carpet lift so you don’t even need to walk back up to the top of the hill.
💰 They offer multiple “sessions” throughout the day and pre-purchasing your tickets is strongly recommended. We did the afternoon session (1pm-4pm), it costed about $35 per person, and we would 100% do it again. It was genuinely such a fun experience!
Would you do this?! 😆

USA’S MOST SCENIC ROAD DETAILS ⬇️😍 📍 The Going To The Sun Road in Glacier National Park, Montana stretches over 50 miles through some of the most spectacular scenery in all of North America. 🌲 During the stunning, bucket list worthy drive visitors are treated to breathtaking views of snow capped mountain peaks, glaciers, emerald-blue alpine lakes, subalpine meadows, ancient forests, and even wildlife, if you’re lucky. 🛣️ To drive this road you will either need to book an online reservation at recreation.gov OR arrive before or after reservation required hours: 6am-3pm. The road is usually open late May-early September. Check nps.gov for road openings & closures. 🏔️ This epic stretch of road takes you through Glacier National Park. We enjoyed driving on it early to watch the sun come up over the mountains. This also helps avoid the highest trafficked times! 🚙 To drive straight through, from the West Entrance to the East entrance, without stopping takes about 2 hours to drive the full 50 miles. We recommend giving yourself a several hours so you have time to stop at pull offs or even at a trailhead to do some hiking. 💌 Send this to someone who needs to take this drive with you! Comment if you have a drive you think is just as beautiful if not more! 🙌🏼 #glacier #glaciernationalpark #nationalparks #montana #goingtothesunroad #scenicroute #roadtrip

·2d ago WHERE TO EAT IN ROME 🍝👇 🥐☕️ Breakfast 📍 We loved the pistachio croissant, chocolate croissant, maritozzo, (brioche bun filled with whipped cream) and cappuccinos. 📍 The best hotel breakfast breakfast buffet we’veever had. Everything from a mimosa station, fruit, waffles, pancakes, eggs, bacon, potatoes, Italian meats & cheeses, freshly squeezed orange juice, desserts galore, a hot food bar, a STUFF YOUR OWN CROISSANT BAR with all the delectable stuffings you could imagine. 🍝🍕 Lunch/Dinner 📍 Known for their handmade pasta with a view of the Pantheon. Their carbonara pasta is a must…10/10. We also loved their fettuccine al Ragù. 📍 This viral sandwich shop lived up to the hype. We got La Paradiso (Mortadella, cream of pistachio, stracciatella cheese with chopped pistachios) and La ‘Italiana (Prosciutto di Parma, mozzarella di bufala, tomato and Basil). 📍 Pasta in the charming neighborhood of Trastevere. 📍 Meals come with complimentary bread and olives. We loved the pasta amatriciana (tomato sauce, guanciale/bacon, & pecorino romano cheese). Rome is all about the pasta, but don’t skip Roman style pizza! It typically comes in rectangular slices, and usually has a thicker, crunchier crust. 🥂🍷 Apertivo- Reservations required! This spot boasts an iconic view of the Colosseum. We ordered an Aperol Spritz & Passionfruit Mocktail. Your drinks will come with a 2 tiered tray of delectable snacks. 📍 Roof Top Best Aperol spritz we had in Rome. Plus, an incredible view of the city at golden hour. 🍨🍰 Something sweet: 📍 They literally have 100 flavors of tiramisu. We recommend the pistachio & kinder bueno 📍 The creamiest gelato EVER. Plus they put liquid chocolate (dark or white) inside your cone if you wish. 📍 Chocolate covered gelato! Great flavors. 📍 Our favorite tiramisu in Rome. #rome #romeitaly #romefood #italy #italytrip #italytravel #rometravel #rometrip

·3d ago 7 Spots you CAN’T MISS in Banff 😍👇 1. Moraine Lake 💎 You just can’t beat the turquoise waters & surrounding peaks of this magical spot. Cars are no longer allowed to park at the entrance so you will need to book a shuttle 2 days beforehand. To get the iconic view of the lake, hike the rock pile trail. It’s less than half a mile round trip and 33 ft of elevation gain. 2. Lake Louise 🩵 Highly recommend doing the Lake Agnes Tea House Hike (4.6 miles + 1427 ft elevation gain) & both Big & Little Beehive hikes. Big was 6.7 miles with 2552 ft elevation gain, Little was 5.7 miles with 1955 ft elevation gain. But the good news is the Lake Agnes is on the way to both beehives, so you might as well keep going! 3. Johnston Canyon 💧 Waterfalls on water falls 😍 we hiked to the upper falls which was a 3.3 mile round trip and 862 ft of elevation gain. This was a beautiful trail with all the pine trees and running water! 4. Downtown Banff ⛰️ The most charming, hallmark town. So many awesome shops & restaurants. You have to get a famous Beaver Tail- it’s like an elephant ear from the fair and they have all sorts of yummy toppings to choose from. There is also a farmer’s market on Wednesdays in the summer that has a ton of cool vendors! 5. Peyto Lake 🐺 It’s just under a half mile to the view point with 255 ft elevation gain. This is such a unique lake because the outline looks like the profile of a wolf and of course it’s just stunning with that color! 6. Lake Minnewanka 🚤 There are several trails here, but we did the one to Stewart Canyon. It’s 4.2 miles round trip with 862 ft elevation gain and stunning views of the lake along the way. 7. Bow Lake 🛶 Another stunner lake! There are places along the shore to spend the day, enjoy a picnic, and bask in the sun on the lake. Get there early to find a good spot! Send this to someone who would love to visit Banff! #banff #banffnationalpark #banffcanada #morainelake #lakelouise

·4d ago BUCKET LIST COLORADO HIKE👇 Send this to someone you’d hike this trail with! 📍Where: Mount Sneffels Wilderness, San Juan Mountains, Colorado 🥾 Name: Blue Lakes Trail 🏔️ Distance: 8.7 miles ☁️ Elevation gain: 2,509 feet 👣 rating: Hard 🚙 Parking situation: There is a small free parking lot at the base of the trail. We arrived around 8:30 am on a weekday and were the only people. In fact, the entire day we saw less than 20 people. 🪨 Going to be honest, this one kicked our BUTTS. And not sure if the distance on All Trails is correct because we have another app that told us we hiked almost 10 miles, and we didn’t even finish the whole thing due to weather and being exhausted.😅 💧There are 3 lakes on this hike, the one in this video is the Lower Blue Lake. It’s beautiful at the base but we highly suggest climbing towards the middle lake, if you feel up to it, and stopping along the way for incredible aerial views of the lower lake. 💦 After taking in the views of the lower lake from above, we opted not to climb the rest of the way to the middle and upper lakes. It looked like it was about to rain and from all the blogs we’ve read, the lower lake is the most beautiful. #colorado #telluride #telluridecolorado #hiking #coloradohiking #coloradohikes #sanjuanmountains
