Canadian Rockies Splendor

April 28, 2020

The Canadian Rockies, a segment of the Rocky Mountains, is one of the most beautiful places on earth!  The region extends southeastward for about 1,000 miles from northern British Columbia and forms nearly half the 900-mile border between the provinces of British Columbia and Alberta. Spectacular scenery abounds in in Banff, Jasper and Waterton Lakes National Parks on the eastern slopes in Alberta and in the Kootenay and Yoho National Parks on the western slopes in British Columbia. The region is full of majestic mountains, emerald alpine lakes, glaciers and an abundance of wildlife. The parks are easily traversed as a self drive on one of the finest highway systems in Canada or with a group tour specifically designed for families; many with outdoor adventures included. These adventures abound with biking, hiking, kayaking, white water rafting, horseback riding, fishing, hot springs, icefield exploration, rock climbing and more.
