This tour is for riders who wants more from their summer cycling vacation: More stunning scenery, more time to explore the National Parks we visit, more sweeping meadows, more glaciers and more glacial lakes, more roaring waterfalls, more remarkable wildlife viewing, more fantastic cycling days.
The trip begins in Whitefish, Montana from which point we will transfer you to the township of Jasper in Alberta.
You will cycle the legendary Columbia Icefields and Bow River Valley Parkways in two of the Canadian Rockies premier National Parks.  You cycle past Lake Louise, the turquoise gem of Banff National Park. Spend a day in Banff enjoying fine Canadian hospitality. Ascend from the paradise of Kananaskis Valley over Highwood Pass and follow The Cowboy Trail to Waterton Lakes National Park. The grand finale for this two week trip is a ride over the Going-to-the-Sun Road in Glacier National Park. This tour will leave you longing for only one thing: More.
