Last summer my husband and I decided that traveling a long distance with our three children just isn’t for us, so our family vacations consisted of camping, visiting the mountains and exploring in Canmore, Banff, and Lake Louise and spending some time in Calgary (my kids love staying in Hotels). Not surprisingly our plans for this summer are pretty similar and since we’ve had {mostly} great weather so far my kids have been asking to go camping and visit the mountains on a weekly basis. As a family that loves spending time outdoors I am especially excited for the Epic Made Easy Passes because they will not only provide my children with new experiences and memories, they will also save us some money in the process. Win Win!
The Epic Summer Pass gives you unlimited access to the Banff Gondola, Banff Lake Cruise, Glacier Skywalk, Glacier Adventure and Maligne Lake Cruise, so you can have an epic summer on any budget! Until May 31, 2016, adult passes can be purchased for $130 and children’s passes for $70. Once you have visited three attractions the pass has paid for itself AND you can use it an unlimited amount of times over the summer so you can get even more value from the passes.
Brewster Travel Canada released this statement and I think it’s pretty well said:
“We understand the difficulties that Alberta’s economic circumstances are posing to families who are looking for ways to enjoy their summer vacation on a budget,” said Dave McKenna, President of Brewster Travel Canada. “We want to give Albertans the best summer possible by reminding them about the world-class adventures that are right in their backyards. The Epic Summer Pass is cost-effective and high value, offering pass-holders the unique opportunity to reconnect with our province, our mountains and each other.”
By purchasing your Epic Summer Pass now you can save money all Summer long, keeping in mind the passes are only available until May 31st, 2016. So head on over to www.epicmadeeasy.ca/ to purchase your passes so that your family can have an Epic Summer right here in Alberta!

My favourite summer spot is Jasper. We love to go for hikes and hit the hot sprngs
We love to go the Columbia Icefields
this sounds like great fun for the summer!
Love Vancouver.
Love the mountains! Would love to be able to visit them more often with this awesome prize!
We love visiting Canmore and Banff in the summer.
We love the Rockies and everything about them, one of the many reasons we moved to alberta. The ice fields and gondola are amongst the favorites in our family, the more snow the better 🙂
Some of my favorite childhood memories were going to the mountains…can’t wait to share the same experiences with my littles!
Love Jasper or Vancouver Island!
It’s hard to choose between Banff and Jasper… both are amazing and I would love to introduce my kids to the beauty of the mountains this year!
Jasper!
We make a family trip to Banff every summer – making memories!!
We love banff and beaver tails!
Last year we tried canoeing on Lake Louise and will be going back again!
We love camping and head to Clearwater as our new favorite summer place to explore. Have always wanted to see the ice fields though!
We’ve only ever been to Radium and Jasper, but we do go back to Radium most years. 🙂
I travel between Edmonton and Prince George roughly once a year, and have recently been dumbstruck how fortunate I am to do that trip so frequently. I’m sure there are folks from around the world who save up and scrimp for a once-in-a-lifetime trip to Canada’s Rockies. We are indeed spoiled by the beauty and proximity.
I’m a fan of the okanogan
Perfect Alberta staycation activities!
A really great offer. Cant wait to see the majestic mountains and its surrounding beauty
Jasper!
Canmore is always are special spot to visit. As a child I spent every weekend with the family skiing and hiking. Now I can give my own child great memories just like my own
My favourite summer getaway is going to the Okanagan!
We love camping!!! We also spent last July long weekend in Canmore before heading to Banff….it was awesome!
Jasper is one of my favorites, we’re heading there in June!
My favourite vacation spot is Patricia Lake in Jasper.
I have always loved going to Banff as a child. It is awesome to get to take my little lady there to enjoy now. There is nothing like breathing in the fresh mountain air!????????????
Nordegg & anywhere along the Icefield Parkway are our favourites!
We love taking our boys to Banff. We are a ski family and normally go in the winter, but it would be fantastic to share a summer exploration in the Rockies!
