The Bow Glacier Falls hike is a beautiful and relatively easy trail that follows the shoreline of Bow Lake before leading to the thundering falls, which are fed by the Bow Glacier. The route offers stunning mountain and lake viewsthe entire way, making it a fantastic half-day hike.

With only a moderate incline, it's accessible to most hikers, and the reward of standing beneath the falls is well worth the effort. It's a great way to experience the beauty of the Icefields Parkway beyond just the roadside stops.
