An epic 10 day Canadian Rockies itinerary for adventuring through some of Canada's most iconic mountains. This itinerary is suitable for the summer months, from June to September. My favourite time to go to the Canadian Rockies is mid-July to end of August, to ensure that the snow will be melted on all of the hikes and that you will get optimal weather (climate can still change quickly in mountainous regions).
