The Canadian Rockies are an amazing place to visit year-round. The summer is a popular time to come for hiking as the lakes glisten in the sun with pristine green and turquoise colors.
Snowshoeing is an excellent and one of our favorite winter activities in the Canadian Rockies. Bundle up and cover terrain that is only accessible in winter by snowshoe. Mount Revelstoke has several trails, including the summit trail.

Glacier National Park in Canada is world-renowned for backcountry skiing and snowshoeing. Canada’s second oldest National Park is known for steep mountains that often see avalanches in this region.

Wapta Falls is the largest waterfall on the Kicking Horse River. It is impressive in size at 100 feet high, and 500 feet wide. Visiting here in the winter is a different experience. The river freezes over, allowing you to get up close and personal to the waterfall, or what of it is still flowing.

Hoodoo Creek is a wonderful hike in Yoho National Park. The trail can be difficult to follow during the winter as there is limited traffic. The end of the trail has unique rock formations with several hoodoos.

Just next to the small town of Field, Canada, take the turnoff for Emerald Lake Road. This lake glistens in the summertime. In the winter, it is packed with activities from ice skating, playing ice hockey, hiking, snowshoeing, and cross-country skiing.
