The essential Canadian Rockies
Here’s one simple fact about the Canadian Rockies. Even if you had an entire lifetime, it would be nearly impossible to see everything there is in Banff National Park, Jasper National Park, Waterton National Park, Glacier National Park and Yoho National Park.
The Canadian Rockies cover a vast and amazing area. You'll never see it all, but it'd be fun trying.
This enormous area contains hundreds of natural sites to see, trails to hike and backpack, and culturally fascinating towns.
