Canada: Adventures with charm in the Canadian wilderness
Snow-capped mountain peaks, icy glaciers, turquoise-blue lakes and endless forests - the Rocky Mountains are a diverse and impressive natural landscape that stretches for around 4,500 kilometres across the North American continent from Alaska to New Mexico. You simply can't help it: your gaze wanders over mountain ranges and valleys, clinging to the "King of the Rocky Mountains", the 4,346 metre high Longs Peak, or the other 71 four-thousand metre peaks. It glides from the snow-covered mountain peaks down to the yellow and blue spotted meadows where deer and roe deer graze. Even today, the fascination for this unique, still partly unspoilt natural mountain landscape is unbroken. Go on a discovery tour and observe wild bears, sea eagles, sea otters, orcas and humpback whales.
Go on hikes and excursions by boat or kayak. Live in harmony with the great outdoors and feel the daily changes of the sea, let yourself go and recharge your batteries during a yoga session. Join us on a journey through this fascinating landscape of the Rocky Mountains, experience this natural wonder up close and enjoy first-class panoramic views. Drive yourself in an SUV hire car or take advantage of our offer of a guided private tour including your own driver-guide.

In the centre of Banff National Park, 56 km north of Banff, lies Lake Louise, probably the most famous glacial lake in the Canadian Rocky Mountains. It lies nestled between the mountains of Mt Victoria, Mt Lefroy and Mt Fairview in shimmering turquoise blue. The meltwater from the Victoria Glacier carries rock sediment into the lake and gives it its impressive colour. The glacier water is also responsible for the year-round frosty temperatures in the lake. With temperatures not far above freezing, the lake is not exactly inviting for swimming.
