Message from Gemma, Off Track Travel

Often cited as one of the best road trips in the world, the Icefields Parkway is lined with towering mountains and immense glaciers, providing jaw-dropping vistas no matter where you look. This is the northern entrance of the Parkway.

Driving the 230km Icefields Parkway without stopping takes around 3 hours. Allow at least 6 to 7 hours for checking out roadside viewpoints and a couple of short walks (Peyto Lake, Athabasca Falls, Sunwapta Falls, Mistaya Canyon).

If hiking is your priority, plan to stay on the Icefields Parkway or drive it twice. Or get up very early!

A Parks Canada parks pass is required to drive the Icefields Parkway ($22/day for a vehicle of up to 7 people).
