From Calgary: Columbia Icefield Day Trip with Skywalk

Explore the Columbia Icefield on a day trip from Calgary. Walk on the Athabasca Glacier, enjoy a scenic drive through Banff and Jasper National Parks, and take in views from the Skywalk.
Begin your adventure with a scenic drive from Calgary through Banff and Jasper National Parks, taking in the stunning views of the Canadian Rockies. Arrive at the Columbia Icefield, a massive glacial landscape that feeds several glaciers, including the iconic Athabasca Glacier.

Climb aboard the Ice Explorer, a six-wheeled vehicle designed to travel across the ice, and drive across the surface of the Athabasca Glacier. Get up close to this natural wonder and enjoy the breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains.

Next, step out onto the glass-bottomed Skywalk, suspended 280 meters (918 feet) above the Sunwapta Valley. Feel the fresh air on your face as you gaze down at the glacial crevasses and shimmering ice below. Take in the views of Mount Athabasca, Mount Columbia, and Mount Robson, as well as the Sunwapta River winding through the valley.

During your tour, stop for a hearty mountain picnic and take a photo stop at Bow Lake, one of the largest glacier-fed lakes in Banff National Park. Visit scenic Peyto Lake (when access permits) or lower Waterfowl Lake along the Icefields Parkway, a stunning glacier lake set against Mt Chephren.

Choose from a variety of lunch options, including a chicken club wrap, roast beef sandwich, vegetarian wrap, or green salad with chicken. Enjoy your meal with fruit, juice, salted potato chips, and two-bite brownies.
