Banff Trail is a residential neighbourhood in the north-west quadrant of Calgary, Alberta. It is located north-east of the intersection of Crowchild Trail and Trans-Canada Highway, east of McMahon Stadium and the University of Calgary. The Banff Trail station of the C-train LRT system serves the community, which contains a large motel village in the south-west corner.

It is named for the town of Banff, which in turn takes its name from Banffshire, Scotland. The adjoining Highway 1 connects the city of Calgary to Banff and Banff National Park. The community has an Area redevelopment plan in place.Cite web| url= http://www.calgary.ca/docgallery/bu/planning/pdf/banff_trail_arp.pdf | title=Banff Trail Area Redevelopment Plan| author=City of Calgary Planning| year=2005| accessdate= 2007-05-09]
