4 Day Mountain Moment Rail Journey

Style: Independent Touring

Day 1: Edmonton to Jasper

Leave the prairies behind and travel by rail into the majestic Canadian Rockies and Jasper National Park.

Day 2: Jasper Activities

The experience of riding Canada's longest and highest aerial SkyTram into Jasper's National Park's alpine tundra will captivate all ages. Discover views unsurpassed in the Canadian Rockies. Gaze over six mountain ranges, glacial-fed lakes, meandering rivers, and the scenic Jasper Townsite. By the time you reach the upper terminal of Whistler's Mountain, you will have gained over 973 meters. At the top enjoy a fabulous breakfast in the Treeline Restaurant...A view with taste!

OR

Later that afternoon take a float trip. Experience a major route of the Fur Traders used since the turn of the 18th Century. Several small, easy sets of rapids and calm stretches allow your National Park licensed guide to point out the Natural and Human History of Jasper. The specially designed, 25 foot long, oar-powered rafts, offer a safe and comfortable ride that any first-time rafter will enjoy.

Day 3: Jasper Activities

Experience a chauffeured motorcycle sidecar tour that is a thrill and adventure for all ages. Tour the open road in the great outdoors of the Canadian Rockies; fresh clean mountain air, the wind on your face, unobstructed views of amazing wildlife, and breathtaking scenery around every bend. Cruise by raging rivers, beautiful lakes, powerful waterfalls, ancient glaciers, majestic mountain peaks, and to world-famous destinations.

OR

Join a guide as you hike two spectacular trails - the Cavell Meadows and the Path of the Glacier. First, ascend high up into Cavell Meadows where you'll enjoy astonishing sub-alpine views of the Angel Glacier as you stand amidst floral arrangements only Mother Nature herself can produce. Then descend down the Path of the Glacier to a picturesque emerald lake where icebergs that have calved off the face of the Angel Glacier float serenely upon its surface. The day is yours to discover!
