Tunnel Mountain

Also known as Sleeping Buffalo. Located in the Bow River Valley of Banff National Park in Alberta. Completely encircled by the town of Banff.

A short hike that can be easily accessed from downtown Banff. Well-graded switchbacks make the ascent up the mountain something that most reasonably fit people can accomplish. With the exception of a few steeper spots the majority of the trail gently climbs to the summit.

The smallest of the mountains in Banff, it still offers spectacular views of the valley and panoramas over the town of Banff.
