Banff E-Bike Rentals for the Best Summer Adventures
Explore Banff on an e-bike tour to Johnston Canyon. Ride scenic trails, spot wildlife, and experience the Rockies with guided tours and rentals from Banff Adventures.
Want to see more of Banff National Park this summer? If you’re looking to hit the many biking trails that wind through Banff but want to conserve a little extra energy for other activities, e-bikes are the perfect way to do more! These sturdy frames come equipped with a small electric motor that gives riders an extra “boost” with every pedal, making it easier to go farther and experience as much as possible. Learn more about our exciting Johnston Canyon e-bike tour and other ways to experience the magic of the Rockies with our team below!
Bike the Road to Johnston Canyon
One of the coolest trips you can take by bike is the ride to Johnston Canyon. Since your e-bike does the heavy lifting, you can enjoy the 25km journey from the Banff townsite while keeping your eyes peeled for elk, deer, or even a bear in the trees. Once you arrive at the canyon, you can lock up your bike and go on a famous hike. You’ll walk on catwalk paths built right into the stone walls to see giant, crashing waterfalls. Johnston Canyon is the perfect fit for a sunny summer day and a memory you’ll keep forever!
Note, these tours operate from May / June & September when The Bow Valley Parkway is closed to vehicles.
A Bike for Every Member of the Crew
Want to cycle at your own pace and in your own direction? No problem! We want the whole family to join the fun, so our rental shop is stocked with everything you need for a great day out. Whether you want a big boost from an electric bicycle or a traditional ride, we have the right gear for you, including:
- Premium e-Bikes: Our most popular rentals! They are perfect for long rides like the Parkway because they make pedalling less strenuous and more accessible for riders of all levels.
- Hybrid and Mountain Bikes: If you want a classic workout, these are great for riding the paved Legacy Trail or exploring the local trails around the Banff Springs.
- Junior Rides: We have smaller bikes and helmets for the little explorers in your group, so nobody gets left behind!

Double the Fun with More Adventures
Banff is full of legendary things to do, and you can easily add more excitement to your day by pairing your ride with other activities:
- Reach New Heights: After a morning on the valley floor, head up to Mt. Norquay for the Via Ferrata! You’ll wear a harness and scale iron catwalks with a professional guide—it’s the ultimate vertical challenge.
- Make a Big Splash: Ready to get wet? A whitewater rafting trip on the Kicking Horse River is a bumpy, splashy, and super fun way to spend an afternoon.
- Spot the Wildlife: Give your legs a rest and join a wildlife tour at dinner time. It’s the best time to see the animals that call Banff home and take in some beautiful sunsets.
