About the Journey

One of North America’s unspoiled wildernesses, the Canadian Rockies offer abundant opportunities to revel in the great outdoors. Convene with fellow Tigers in Calgary, where your journey begins, then depart for northern Montana’s Glacier National Park with its rugged mountains, thunderous waterfalls, still lakes, and glacial valleys.

Visit the mountain resort town of Whitefish en route to breathtaking Lake Louise, with opportunities to view the stunning scenery by afternoon and early morning light. In Jasper National Park, step foot onto the Athabasca Glacier within the UNESCO-designated Columbia Icefield, explore the geological marvel of Maligne Canyon, and view the cerulean Maligne Lake.

After a thrilling walk across the Glacier Skywalk, where snowcapped peaks and waterfalls seem close enough to touch, the journey concludes in breathtaking Banff National Park. Take a gondola ride to the top of Sulphur Mountain with views of six mountain ranges, and enjoy time to explore nature at your own pace.
