Canadian Rockies

Yoho & Banff National Parks

Travelling via Mount Revelstoke and Glacier National Park, you arrive at Yoho (meaning 'awe'). Here you can hike to Emerald Lake or Takakkaw Falls and opt to hurtle down the rapids of Kicking Horse River by raft or go on a gentler canoe trip. Having marvelled at the colour of Lake Louise you'll arrive at the majestic Banff National Park. Immerse yourself in the relaxing Sulphur Mountain hot springs in preparation for the following day's hiking in the park. This is a great area for wildlife so keep you eyes peeled for bears!

Glaciers, Jasper & Vancouver

Whilst following the spectacular Icefields Parkway through the heart of the Rockies you'll stop for a hike on the Athabasca Glacier before reaching Jasper National Park. This park offers some of the best hiking opportunities in the Rockies but you can always opt to take to two wheels instead. Finally there's the chance to explore cosmopolitan Vancouver before returning to Seattle.
