»VIEW COMPLETE SLIDESHOW


The Canadian Rockies
- Banff, Lake Louise, Yoho and Kootenay National Parks

The Canadian Rocky Mountains stand out as one of the most beautiful and wild mountain ranges in the world.

Stunning snow-capped peaks tower above emerald lakes where a plethora of wildlife lives unimpeded by man.

Only 1.5 hours from a major international airport (Calgary), the Canadian Rockies are a perfect getaway
in order to reconnect with nature yet luxuriate in fine hotels where gourmet meals and excellent wines
are all part of the 'Rockies Experience'.

Our carefully crafted itinerary maximizes your time on the trail, not in the van.
We have picked some of the most representative hikes from each park giving you an idea
of the majesty and grandeur of the Canadian West.
