Welcome to Canada! Upon your arrival in Calgary, you will be picked up by the complimentary hotel shuttle and taken to your hotel. There you will meet your tour guide and receive initial information and tips about the upcoming tour.

Today we head to the mountains! After about a 90-minute drive, you'll reach Banff National Park. You'll pitch your tent for the next four nights at an idyllic campsite nestled in a pine forest – complete with showers. After lunch together, you'll set off on your first hike, perhaps along the shores of Lake Minnewanka. In the evening, we'll cook together, and the day will end around a crackling campfire.

In the morning, the gondola (included) takes you to the summit of Sulphur Mountain. From up here, you have a breathtaking view over the wide valley, the town of Banff, and Tunnel Mountain, which looks like a sleeping buffalo. A short hiking trail leads to Sanson Peak, where a weather observer once lived. In the afternoon, you can drift leisurely down the Bow River on a large rubber raft (included) – past bizarre rock formations and impressive mountain walls.

Today's adventure is all about sports: With a high-quality mountain bike and a short introduction, you'll explore the surrounding trails. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced rider, there's a route for everyone. A perfect mix of adventure, exercise, and nature! In the evening, the campfire awaits – time for stories and stargazing.

A picture-perfect postcard scene: Emerald-green Lake Louise lies nestled between snow-capped peaks. You can take a leisurely stroll along the shore, rent a canoe, or simply soak in the view. If you're up for a hike, follow the guide to the famous teahouse by the mountain lake – a somewhat steep but rewarding trail. At the top, an alpine world awaits, with more trails leading to glaciers and viewpoints.

Today you'll drive along the spectacular Icefields Parkway, one of the most beautiful scenic drives in the world. With a bit of luck, you might spot bighorn sheep, elk, mountain goats, or even bears along the way. At the Columbia Icefield, you'll hike to a viewpoint overlooking mighty glaciers and ice fields. Afterward, you'll marvel at the thundering Athabasca Falls and descend into a secluded canyon. This is followed by three nights at a comfortable campground near Jasper (showers available).

You'll hike through the narrow gorge of Maligne Canyon – the water rushes 50 meters below you. Afterward, you'll drive up to the beautiful Maligne Lake. Along the way, you'll pass a lake that magically disappears in the summer. There, you'll hike through colorful wildflower meadows at an altitude of around 2,150 meters – or you can take an optional boat trip to the legendary Spirit Island (approx. 90 minutes). In the evening, it's off on a photo safari – have your camera ready!

A day full of possibilities! How about a Western-style horseback ride accompanied by experienced cowboys? Or perhaps you'd prefer canoeing, cycling, a swim in the lake, or rafting? Your guide will be happy to help you plan. The day culminates in a true highlight: the hike to the Sulphur Skyline. The trail is short but steep – and the view is simply spectacular. Afterward, you can relax in the open-air hot springs of Miette Hot Springs (entrance included).

You leave the Rockies and drive for about four hours through vast prairies, ranchland, and farmland to Edmonton. Your hotel is right next to the famous West Edmonton Mall – a huge leisure complex with a roller coaster, wave pool, ice skating rink, mini-golf, hundreds of shops, and restaurants. Admission to Galaxyland theme park with its many rides is included.

Transfer to Edmonton airport – with many unforgettable memories in tow.
