Hiking & Trekking Tours & Trips in Canada
What if you could walk the shoreline of Bow Lake's clear waters, make your way to the charming European teahouse at Lake Agnes and tackle the Sulphur Skyline Trail for mountain views stretching in every direction? The Lake Louise area is a particular highlight with its network of trails leading to tucked-away alpine lakes and glacier lookouts. For a challenge, try Cory and Edith passes near Banff with a solid 900-meter climb through thick forest.
