From Banff: Columbia Icefield, Skywalk & Peyto Lake Day Tour - Small Group

Pass Castle Mountain and Crowfoot Glacier
on the way to Bow Lake

Get picked up at your booked location in Banff, Canmore or Calgary and start your journey with a scenic drive. Pause at the Castle Mountain viewpoint for a close-up view of Castle Mountain, then stop at the Crowfoot Glacier viewpoint (about 10 minutes).

Next, spend about 30 minutes at Bow Lake, the source of the Bow River, enjoying the lake and surrounding mountain scenery.

Relax at Peyto Lake
and Saskatchewan Crossing

Spend about 45 minutes at Peyto Lake enjoying the view. Take a 20-minute coffee break at Saskatchewan Crossing and make a short stop at the Weeping Wall viewpoint.

Meet the Athabasca Glacier
at the Columbia Icefield

Arrive at the Columbia Icefield and stay for about 3 hours. See the Athabasca Glacier while your guide explains its history and significance, and if you wish, experience the glass-floored Columbia Icefield Skywalk and glacier activities (tickets not included).

※ Columbia Icefield and Skywalk activity tickets are not included and must be purchased separately.
※ The Columbia Icefield is closed in winter (mid-October to early May). During this period, the tour stops at Lake Louise (about 45 minutes) and Johnston Canyon (about 60 minutes) instead.
※ Wildlife lives in its natural habitat, so sightings are not guaranteed.
