Western Canada Bike Tours & Walking/Hiking Trips
The Rocky Mountains create a dramatic backdrop for bicycle tours in Western Canada.
Cycling on the Icefields Parkway between Jasper and Banff is truly a breathtaking experience. This route offers awe-inspiring views of towering glaciers, turquoise lakes, and dramatic mountain peaks. Whether cycling along the smooth, scenic roads or hiking through the alpine meadows and national park trails, every turn presents another postcard-perfect landscape. Wildlife sightings, such as elk, mountain goats, and even the occasional bear, add to the excitement of the journey.
A little further west, cycling along the historic Kettle Valley Railway to the renowned Okanagan wineries creates a memorable and relaxing bicycle holiday. Much of this scenic route is traffic-free, allowing riders to fully immerse themselves in the natural beauty of the region.
For those who prefer coastal scenery, Vancouver Island is a magical destination for a bike tour or walking holiday. The rugged shorelines, charming seaside villages, and lush old-growth forests offer a truly immersive experience. Exploring these ancient woodlands brings a sense of primal connection to nature, making every ride or hike an unforgettable Western Canada adventure.
