Discover Columbia Icefield Glacier on a guided day tour from Calgary, Canmore, or Banff. Admire the views of the largest icefield in the Canadian Rockies from a variety of viewpoints.
Start the tour from Calgary, Canmore, or Banff. Travel by air-conditioned vehicle to the Crowfoot glacier that sits above Bow Lake. Enjoy stunning photo opportunities from a lookout point on the world-famous Icefields Parkway about 34 km (21 mi) north of Lake Louise.
Next, enjoy a short walk along the lakeshore trail around Bow Lake. Witness the immense powers of glaciology from a fully accessible, cliff-edge walkway that leads to a glass-floored observation platform 280 m (918 ft) above the Sunwapta Valley.
Head to the Columbia Icefield Skywalk, and admire the awesome sights of ice-capped mountain peaks to vast glacier-formed valleys. Enjoy the sight of Peyto Lake, which is best seen from Bow Summit, the highest point on the Icefields Parkway, before heading back to the city.
