Savour the awesome Rockies Enjoy Canada's rich wildlife Meet First Nations people The natural splendour of the Rockies is unsurpassable. En route to Jasper you'll see snow-capped peaks, icefields, fast flowing rivers, glaciers, alpine pastures, remarkable coloured lakes and abundant wildlife. Varied activities - trail walks, horse-riding and wildlife spotting, plus river rafting and canoeing (both optional) ensure an exciting wilderness experience. Finally, Elk Island NP is one of the best places to watch wildlife and provides a chance to sleep in a teepee and meet the people of Canada's First Nations.
