Exploring the Canadian Rocky Mountains, Jasper National Park, and Banff…
This section takes us through the iconic scenery of the Canadian Rocky Mountains. After cycling past mile zero of the Alaska Highway in Dawson Creek B.C., and then briefly across the northern prairie in western Alberta, we turn south along remote Highway 40 towards the Rockies. The route then turns west onto the Yellowhead Highway which takes us to a rest day in Jasper National Park and the resort town of Jasper where deer, black bear and big horned sheep may wander the streets.
Then it’s down the breathtaking Icefields Parkway which runs alongside the continental divide, past Mt Edith Cavell, the Columbia Icefields, and serene Lake Louise. Rated as one of the top rides in the world by Condé Nast Traveller, the Parkway winds along the Continental Divide through soaring rocky mountain peaks, icefields and vast sweeping valleys en route to the winter sports and hiking haven that is Banff for a well-deserved rest day.
