Morning
Depart from your Calgary hotel and set out on a spectacular journey through the heart of the Canadian Rockies. Travel north along the legendary Icefields Parkway, with an early scenic stop at Crowfoot Glacier, where ancient ice clings dramatically to the mountainside.
Continue to Peyto Lake for a 30-minute visit. Famous for its maple-leaf shape, the lake's vivid turquoise waters wind through a sweeping alpine valley- one of the most photographed views in the Rockies.
If Peyto Lake is inaccessible due to maintenance or other uncontrollable factors, the visit will be replaced with Waterfowl Lake.
Midday
Arrive at The Crossing for lunch (at your own expense). Guests may choose an optional self-serve buffet before continuing deeper into the mountains.
The journey unfolds along the Icefields Parkway, consistently ranked among the world's most beautiful drives, with glaciers, waterfalls, and jagged peaks lining the route.
Afternoon
Reach the Columbia Icefield, where optional experiences bring you face-to-face with one of North America's largest icefields. Board the Snowcoach Ice Explorer (optional) to drive directly onto the ancient Athabasca Glacier, standing atop ice formed over millions of years.
You may also choose to experience the Columbia Icefield Skywalk—a glass-floored platform suspended 280 meters above the Sunwapta Valley, offering a breathtaking perspective straight down into the glacier-carved landscape.
Continue north to Athabasca Falls, where powerful, glacier-fed waters plunge through sculpted limestone canyons.
Evening
Arrive in Jasper and check into your hotel for an overnight stay, surrounded by the serene beauty of Jasper National Park.

Travel along a scenic mountain route to Medicine Lake, known for its mysterious disappearing waters and tranquil alpine surroundings. Pause for a short photo stop to take in the stillness of this unique glacial lake.
Midday
Continue to Maligne Lake, the world's second-largest glacier-fed lake. Guests may choose to join the optional Maligne Lake Cruise (seasonal, approx. 90 minutes), sailing across the 22-kilometre-long lake toward the iconic Spirit Island-often described as one of the most photographed locations in the Canadian Rockies.
Following the cruise, enjoy optional lunch at Maligne Lake (approx. 45 minutes), with time to relax, explore the shoreline, and capture photos of the surrounding peaks reflected in the turquoise water.
Afternoon
Visit Maligne Canyon, the longest and deepest canyon in the Canadian Rockies. Walk along carved pathways and bridges above powerful glacial waters that have sculpted dramatic limestone walls over thousands of years.
If Maligne Canyon is inaccessible due to wildfire impacts or other conditions, this visit will be replaced with Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge and a walk along Beauvert Lake (total approx. 30 minutes).

Stop briefly at The Crossing for a short rest break to stretch, use facilities, and enjoy mountain views.

Morning
Depart early from Banff and travel west along the iconic Trans-Canada Highway. As the Rockies rise dramatically ahead, pass the striking ramparts of Castle Mountain, its sheer cliffs resembling a stone fortress carved into the skyline.

Midday
Continue to Moraine Lake (seasonal) for a 60-minute visit. From the viewpoint, gaze across luminous turquoise waters set beneath the jagged skyline of the Ten Peaks—one of the most iconic panoramas in the Canadian Rockies.

Afternoon
Travel onward past the historic Spiral Tunnels, an engineering marvel carved through the mountains, and enter Yoho National Park.
Stop at Emerald Lake for a peaceful 20-minute visit. Its jade-green waters ripple gently as red canoes drift across the surface-one of the park's most serene scenes.
