The Icefields Parkway follows the heart of the Canadian Rockies from Banff to Jasper and is claimed by Canadians to be the most scenic mountain drive in the world. Some of the planet’s great beauty spots are found along here, including Banff, Moraine Lake, Lake Louise, Peyto Lake, Honeymoon Lake and Malign Lake. There are innumerable hiking opportunities in summer but watch out for bears. Winter offers great skiing and the bears are asleep.

Highway 93

Also known as Highway 93, scenic Icefields Parkway is a road trip you won’t forget. Whether you travel by car or bike, the untamed landscapes of Canada’s first ever national park, Banff, and its biggest national park, Jasper, will inspire you with their natural beauty. Miles of biking and hiking trails, readily accessed by the highway, expose you to glaciers, waterfalls, hot springs, wildlife, and more.
