The Experience

What your day looks like

Embark on an unforgettable day exploring the renowned Icefields Parkway, often hailed as the world heavyweight champion of scenic roads. Traverse through mesmerizing landscapes studded with over 100 ancient glaciers, cascading waterfalls, and turquoise lakes, paired with detours to some lesser-known treasures known only to locals. Will the lakes be blue? The high alpine lakes along the Icefields Parkway can remain frozen into early June and usually start to freeze again in mid-November, but it all depends. Either way, we promise that frozen or thawed, you'll be amazed at the beauty you see!
