The Bear Street fireplace is a key feature to the street design - a publicly accessible gathering space inviting visitors and residents alike to linger on Bear Street. Gathering around a wood fire is an authentic national park experience that naturally brings people together and activates the five senses.
The Bear Street fireplace was intentionally designed to operate as a natural gas fire or a wood-burning fire. To date, the fireplace on Bear Street has been gas fueled.
On January 30, 2023, the Town of Banff started a one-month trial to better understand the operational needs and maintenance of a centrally located wood burning fireplace and give time for residents and visitors an opportunity to experience it. When it returns to being fueled by natural gas, a button will be available for anyone to ignite the fire to run for 15 minutes before an automatic shut off.
We invite you to complete our short survey to learn about your experience with the Bear Street wood-burning fireplace.
