The last several times I've gone to Banff or Canmore, I've taken the On-It bus. The road is busy and I'm not one of those people who drives for fun. I'd much rather read my book or look at the scenery. I absolutely HATE trying to find parking there. And I wander around the town, shopping, drinking, going out to eat and like to be able to drink as much as I want.
If I'm going hiking, I go with a group and we meet somewhere in Calgary to carpool. So I don't think I would be saving much time versus the train.
