If you’re a nature advocate, adventure seeker, or simply in search of breathtaking views, a rendezvous with the Canadian Rockies is a must. While Banff and Jasper are well-known stars of the show, there’s much more to explore beyond these iconic destinations.
Banff National Park
With its turquoise lakes and rugged peaks, this park is a year-round playground. Don’t miss Lake Louise, where you can paddle on pristine waters or hike to teahouses surrounded by towering mountains. For a scenic drive, the Icefields Parkway connecting Banff and Jasper is a masterpiece, showcasing glaciers, waterfalls, and wildlife at every turn.
Jasper National Park
Jasper National Park is a haven for wildlife enthusiasts. Spotting elk, moose, and bighorn sheep is almost guaranteed. Maligne Lake’s boat tours take you to the iconic Spirit Island, a photographer’s dream.
Yoho National Park
But venture further! Yoho National Park boasts the stunning Emerald Lake, and Kootenay National Park’s Radium Hot Springs offer a relaxing soak amidst nature. For a taste of history, visit the mining town of Field in Yoho.
