Activity itinerary

Crowfoot Glacier
  • 20m
The Crowfoot Glacier is such an incredible sight! Its unique, crowfoot-like shape is what makes it stand out among the many glaciers in the Rockies. And you're right – glaciers are constantly changing, so each visit can offer a slightly different view. Bow Lake beneath it adds to the beauty, with its vibrant turquoise waters creating a striking contrast to the snowy peaks above.
Peyto Lake Trail
  • 45m
Peyto Lake is a must-see in the Canadian Rockies, famous for its vibrant turquoise waters and unique wolf-shaped appearance. Visitors come for the iconic viewpoint, offering one of the most stunning views in Banff National Park. Whether for photography, hiking, or simply soaking in the beauty, Peyto Lake offers an unforgettable experience in a truly magical setting
Bow Lake
  • 30m
Bow Lake is a must-stop along the Icefields Parkway. In summer, its vivid blue colour comes from the melt of the nearby Crowfoot Glacier. It’s also the perfect spot to take in stunning views of the Crowfoot Glacier, Wapta Icefield, Bow Glacier, Crowfoot Mountain, and Mount Thompson—making it an unforgettable all-in-one experience!
Columbia Icefield Discovery Centre
  • 2h
  • Admission ticket not included
The Columbia Icefield is one of North America’s largest, covering 325 square kilometres and feeding into eight glaciers. Visitors flock here to experience the thrill of riding the Ice Explorer (Additional Charge) onto the Athabasca Glacier, where you can walk on ice that's over 400 years old. With stunning views of towering peaks and vast glaciers, it’s a must-visit for adventure seekers, photographers, and anyone eager to witness the raw beauty of the Canadian Rockies. It’s an unforgettable experience in one of the world’s most incredible landscapes.
Columbia Icefield Skywalk
  • 1h
  • Admission ticket not included
The Columbia Icefield Skywalk in Jasper National Park is truly a thrilling and awe-inspiring experience! This glass-floored walkway extends out over the Sunwapta Valley, offering jaw-dropping views of glaciers, the Icefields, and the rugged beauty of the Canadian Rockies. It's not just the view that makes it special; the feeling of standing above the valley with the mountains and glaciers stretching out before you is something you can’t quite capture anywhere else.
