Things to see in Canada: Banff and Jasper
These towns in the heart of the Rockies are connected by the Icefi elds Parkway – one of the world’s most scenic drives.
Banff National Park and nearby Lake Louise are part of a vast, untamed territory capped by the immense Columbia Icefield, which feeds rivers that flow to the Atlantic, Pacific and Arctic Oceans. Here you may see black bear, caribou, moose, bighorn sheep and mountain goats. The limestone canyons and hanging glaciers of adjacent Jasper National Park are equally inspiring – a place of unparalleled natural beauty.
