Today's the day: You'll travel by bus through rolling ranchland directly into the eastern range of the Rocky Mountains. In Banff National Park, you'll pitch your tent for two nights under fragrant trees (showers are available at the campground). After lunch, your first hike awaits – a loop trail leads through forests of spruce and pine trees and up to an abandoned cabin with breathtaking views of the verdant Bow River Valley. In the evening, enjoy a cozy campfire at the campground.

Today's hike takes you above the tree line into alpine meadows. You'll start with a gentle climb through a wide valley, awash in wildflowers in early summer. This is followed by a steep ascent to a pass at 2330 meters, offering a postcard-perfect panorama. After the hike, you can relax in the hot sulfur springs of Banff or stroll through the lively town.

The postcard-perfect scenery around Lake Louise is a must-see on our trip. Today, our guide will lead us on a short hike with a 400-meter climb to a historic teahouse on an alpine lake. Those who wish can continue hiking – about 15 km through the glacial valley known as the Plain of Six Glaciers – or to a nearby viewpoint.

Today you can choose between an action-packed whitewater rafting trip on the Kicking Horse River or a day hike on the spectacular Iceline Trail. Here you'll hike across glacial tongues, past mountain lakes, and through alpine landscapes.

Today you'll drive along one of the most beautiful roads in the world – the Icefields Parkway. There are many stops along the way: for example, at the turquoise Peyto Lake, Bow Summit, and of course, the Columbia Icefield. Here, hikes begin right at the tree line with breathtaking views. We'll climb to a pass at 2,375 meters, where you can enjoy these vistas. Then it's on to your camp near Jasper (showers available).

Today you have a choice: you can spend relaxing hours at Pyramid Lake swimming and picnicking, or you can go on a more active hike at Maligne Lake. There, you can, for example, hike a loop trail – or continue on to a 2,790-meter-high summit with a fantastic view. Mountain biking, horseback riding, or canoeing are also possible.

A highlight of the day: the spectacular hike to the Sulphur Skyline. Fantastic panoramic views await you at the top of the ridge. Afterwards, you'll have earned a soak in the Miette Hot Springs – warm, mineral-rich, and soothing. You'll spend the night in a comfortable hotel in Hinton. Perhaps you'll meet some local gold prospectors and lumberjacks this evening while playing a game of billiards in the pub.

After a stop at Mount Robson, the highest peak in the Canadian Rockies (3,954 m), you'll hike under giant cedars and hemlocks to the idyllic Kinney Lake. Later, you'll reach your camp right on a lake in Wells Gray Park (with showers). There you can rent a boat and even catch your own dinner!

Today you can enjoy a leisurely stroll to some waterfalls, and perhaps even go behind one. Alternatively, you can go for a Western-style horseback ride or paddle on Clearwater Lake.

You follow the North Thompson River into the arid heart of British Columbia. In Kamloops, there's time for shopping and strolling. Your camp is located at the historic Hat Creek Ranch – once an important rest stop for gold prospectors.

On the Gold Rush Trail, you'll reach the coastal mountains. A stop in Lillooet will transport you back to the Gold Rush era. Afterwards, you'll continue to the trendy town of Whistler. A leisurely hike beneath centuries-old trees will lead you to a lake nestled amidst majestic mountains. Two nights camping near Whistler.

Mount Garibaldi, at 2,678 meters, is the park's highest peak. The park boasts a diverse array of flora and fauna, as well as 90 kilometers of hiking trails – from easy strolls to challenging treks. Black Tusk, in the heart of the park, offers spectacular natural features such as Panorama Ridge, Helm Glacier, and the Sphinx. A day hike leads to the shore of a lake, from where further trails beckon for exploration.

Today we head south along the Sea-to-Sky Highway, one of the most spectacular scenic drives in the world: waterfalls, steep cliffs, sparkling bays, and dramatic peaks. Once in Vancouver, a short city tour will introduce you to highlights such as Canada Place, Chinatown, Gastown, and Robson Street.

Take the ferry to Vancouver Island. In Victoria, the charming harbor awaits you, then it's off to the camp beneath ancient cedar trees. A highly recommended hike leads you to the wild, rugged Sooke River with its natural pools and caves, or to two hidden mountain lakes.

Today you'll discover coastal trails with spectacular views of the ocean and the Juan de Fuca Strait. Cliffs, fjords, small coves – a paradise for nature lovers. With a bit of luck, you might even spot whales, sea lions, or eagles!

You'll visit Botanical Beach – a hotspot of the tidal world with starfish, crabs, and shells. Then it's on across the island to Parksville. The campground (with showers) is right on the beach, surrounded by old Douglas firs.

Today we're going high! A circular hike takes you into the wild heart of Vancouver Island, to the alpine region of the "Forbidden Plateau". The view is simply breathtaking.

In a sea kayak, you'll paddle with your guide through the tranquil waters of Clayoquot Sound. No paddling experience? No problem. It's also suitable for beginners. You'll spend the night on Vargas Island, camping on the beach with your group. Alternatively, you can take a Zodiac to the island.

You'll paddle back along a new route past Stubbs Island. Then it's on to Pacific Rim National Park with its ancient forests full of ferns, moss, and giant trees. In Tofino and Ucluelet, you can stroll through galleries, shop for souvenirs, or optionally participate in whale watching tours.

On your way back to the ferry, you'll stop at Cathedral Grove – home to 800-year-old giant trees. Enjoy a final stroll through this fairytale forest – then you'll head back to the mainland and arrive at your hotel near Vancouver Airport in the afternoon.

The hotel's shuttle bus will take you comfortably to the airport. Goodbye Canada – see you next time!
