What’s the best route from Vancouver to Banff?

What’s the best way to drive from Vancouver to Banff? I’m taking a road trip to visit some college friends all over Canada. I’m hoping to see all of them while I’m here!

The best route from Vancouver to Banff pretty much sticks to Trans-Canada Hwy/BC-1 E, though you’ll technically continue onto Trans-Canada Hwy/AB-1 E once you enter Alberta.
It’s a bit of a long
road trip
at 10 and a half hours. However, it’s definitely worth the drive, for the beautiful scenery that you’ll encounter along the way! You’ll have plenty of opportunities to stop and rest at waterfalls, mountain ranges, and waterfront parks.
