‘There’s no way that’s not Photoshopped’...

This is what your friends will say when you show them your Canadian Rockies travel pics. This mighty mountain range is a (huge) segment of the Rocky Mountains which spans 4800 kilometres from British Columbia to New Mexico. It’s home to four national parks – Banff, Jasper, Kootenay and Yoho – and some of North America’s most breathtaking scenery. Think impossibly blue lakes, sprawling glaciers and ice fields, and ink-blank skies occasionally graced with the Northern Lights. If you like the sound of trekking in the shadows of snow-dusted peaks, standing in the mist of some of Canada’s tallest waterfalls or canoeing to a secluded beach to camp under the stars, then a Canadian Rockies trip has your name all over it.

The famous highway that is Icefields Parkway in Alberta, Canada

Drive the Icefields Parkway

'Are we there yet?', isn't something you'll be saying on the drive to Icefields Parkway. Spanning 232 kilometres between Jasper and Banff national parks, this remarkable route takes the phrase 'scenic drive' to a whole new level. Admire the views as you weave beneath mountaintops studded with jagged peaks, drive past ancient glaciers and stop to take in the mind-boggling colour of Peyto Lake.

Do some serious wildlife spotting

When journeying through the Rockies, fascinating landmarks aren’t the only things you should keep an eye out for. Tens of thousands of animals call the Canadian Rockies home including bighorn sheep, moose, bald eagles, beavers and grizzly bears (to name a few). Spot these local critters grazing on grass, scurrying through the forest floor or soaring through the skies in search of prey.

Marvel at Lake Louise

If you Google 'Canadian Rockies', there's a good chance Lake Louise will dominate the image results. This iconic lake is one of the most photographed places in the Rockies thanks to its deep turquoise colour that pops against the surrounding peaks. But don't just admire it from afar – paddle across it in a kayak in summer or skate across it in winter.

Enjoy Canadian hospitality in Calgary

Calgary might be the gateway to Banff National Park, but its craft breweries and budding dining scene make it a must-visit on any Canadian Rockies trip. Enjoy an Alberta beef burger and a bloody Caesar along Stephen Avenue, check out Prince’s Island Park or see the city skyline from the top of Calgary Tower.

See the Northern Lights

Witnessing the ethereal Northern Lights for the first time is something you’ll never forget. There are multiple spots in Canada to see this natural phenomenon, including Slave Lake. If the conditions are right, you'll witness magical hues of green light dancing across the dark winter skies.

Go snowshoeing in Banff

With snow blanketing Banff National Park come December, strapping on a pair of snowshoes and exploring the white wilderness just makes sense. Follow your guide as you trudge along forested trails and listen to the satisfying crunch of fluffy powder beneath your feet. There'll be a cup of hot cocoa with your name on it at the end of your icy adventure.
