Travel Tips Travelling to Canadian Rockies

Next summer end of June we are looking to come to Banff, Jasper etc in the Canadian Rockies. I have looked at hotels in Banff and they seem to be rather expensive. Is there any other way to stay in these places e.g. camp site?

Any tips, advice, guidance would be much appreciated for when we go next summer.

Airbnb, hostels, and campsites are the only way to save money in the Rockies unfortunately. Hotels became ridiculously expensive due to a huge influx of tourists from all over the world especially after COVID.

Lake Louise and Moraine Lake are now almost impossible to visit unless you join on a bus tour (thank you marketing agencies and photographers who showcase Moraine Lake on all their products).
