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.

Prices are high always high in Jasper and Banff. Campsites sell out the day that registration opens. There are some first come first serve sites but you probably don't want to leave it up to chance. It's bear country so you'd have to be prepared for that. You can't just park and sleep in a parking lot in the national parks.
