I loved everything… the seaplane ride over the many islands, seeing the family of orcas on the ferry boat, the views of the Rockies through the observation car on the train, the beautiful national parks, Moraine

FAIRMONT JASPER PARK LODGE Village-style cedar cabins and chalets welcome you to a wilderness lodge resplendent with nature’s charms and nestled along Lac Beauvert in the heart of Jasper National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Immerse in spectacular scenery from dawn to dusk, and then indulge in a well-earned legacy of service and hospitality that dates to 1915, along with a piper who performs faithfully every night at a sunset flag-lowering ceremony.
FAIRMONT CHATEAU LAKE LOUISE Built in 1890 as a simple one-story log cabin, today this landmark chateau sits beneath Victoria Glacier on the shores of a blue green lake. By day postcard perfect silhouettes of the Rockies pose in seasonal vignettes as wildlife, hikers or skiers pause and play in the distance. At night the stars come out, celebrity guests included, inviting with a glittering sky show reserved for the privileged few.
Back to the Ice Age
Athabasca Glacier is one of the last relics of the Ice Age and while you may ride aboard a modern-day Ice Explorer to view it up close, the experience, like the glacier itself, is so unforgettable it will truly be frozen in time in your memories.
The Wonder Trail
One road, two parks and 75+ years of history make the Icefields Parkway unlike any other drive in the world. It started with a vision from atop a fabled peak said to rival the Himalayas. It grew into a 144-mile wonder trail that links Lake Louise to Jasper National Park, passes ancient glaciers, thundering waterfalls and diverse wildlife and inspires awe around every bend.
FAIRMONT BANFF SPRINGS The locals call Fairmont Banff Springs, a former railroad lodge built in 1888, the “castle.” From its majestic architecture to its rich history as an icon of luxurious mountain hospitality, its royal presence as the crown jewel of the Rockies is undeniable. And once you partake of hotel amenities you may not expect in the wilderness, from a world-class spa to fine dining, golf and more, you might never want to come down from this kingdom in the clouds!
