With mountain peaks in the background and what Bob Ross would surely call \u201chappy trees\u201d all around, how can you not be in the mood for love when you visit Banff? Spend a day together letting your worries melt away at the Banff Upper Hot Springs. You can take to the waters any time of year; they\u2019re at least 37 degrees all the time. After a morning of relaxation together, get a table at Ticino Swiss-Italian Restaurant. Wear your comfy pants and get ready to feed your sweetie fondue. Other romantic things to do in Banff include: horse-drawn sleigh rides through the mountains, hikes to Johnston Canyon\u2019s frozen waterfalls, and ice skating near Victoria Glacier on Lake Louise. Book a room at the Fairmont Banff Springs, nicknamed \u201cCastle in the Rockies,\u201d and you\u2019ll feel like royalty.

Doesn\u2019t just hearing that give you the warm fuzzies? Start the morning with a hand-in-hand stroll through the Butchart Gardens, then spend your afternoon at the Victoria Butterfly Gardens under vibrant flora, watching flamingos and bright blue frogs in their habitats. True to its name, the venue also has tons of butterflies fluttering about, just like your heart (too cheesy? We\u2019ll see ourselves out).

Stroll through Victoria Park drinking hot cocoa, then go ice skating at Cody Banks Arena or one of the city\u2019s seven outdoor rinks. Looking to spend your Saturday in lazy mode?
