Columbia Icefield Parkway Tour

Independently travel into the Rocky Mountains from Jasper and drive on one of the world's most spectacular roads; the Icefield Parkway. Then join a group and travel out onto the Athabasca Glacier on a Brewster's all terrain Ice Explorers. The tour is a 75-minute ice age adventure where you will experience the ancient ice and a moving glacier.

In addition to exploring the glacier, you will take a shuttle from the Columbia Icefield Discovery Centre to the Columbia Icefield Skywalk 6.5 km away. The glass-floored platform extends 30m out over the Sunwapta Canyon. Make sure you check out the interpretive stations along the 500m long Discovery Trail that leads to and from the viewpoint. Experience waterfalls, wildlife, fossils and more on an existing cliff-edge walkway that leads to a platform where glass is all that separates you from a 277 m drop.

Daily Departures (weather permitting) between early May and mid-October at either 10:45am or 15:15pm.
