Banff National Park Hand-Drawn Map

This 18” x 24” unframed lithographic art print features an original hand-illustrated map of Banff National Park, created in pen and ink with watercolor by Xplorer Maps artist Chris Robitaille.

Located in southwest Alberta, approximately 81 miles west of Calgary, Banff is Canada’s oldest and most-visited national park. Spanning 2,564 square miles within the Canadian Rockies, the park is defined by turquoise glacial lakes, towering alpine peaks, and expansive wilderness.

The map highlights iconic destinations including Lake Louise, Moraine Lake, and Emerald Lake, along with nearly 1,000 miles of hiking trails that weave through valleys and high mountain passes. Notable summits such as Mount Rundle and Mount Assiniboine rise dramatically from the landscape, while landmarks like the Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel reflect the region’s historic alpine tourism heritage.

The Icefields Parkway is woven into the composition, tracing one of North America’s most scenic drives through the Columbia Icefield and surrounding glaciers.

Banff’s subarctic climate supports a remarkable array of wildlife, including elk, grizzly bears, mountain goats, and bald eagles, reinforcing the park’s ecological richness.

Blending cartographic precision with artistic storytelling, this piece captures the scale, color, and grandeur of the Canadian Rockies.
