About this activity

Glacier National Park of Canada protects, for all time, a portion of the Columbia Mountains Natural Region, in the interior wet belt of British Columbia. The steep, rugged mountains, warm, moist climate and wide variety of plant and animal life are typical of this natural region.

The park protects unique stands of old-growth cedar and hemlock and critical habitat for threatened and endangered wildlife species such as the mountain caribou, mountain goat and grizzly bear. The Rogers Pass National Historic Site is located in Glacier National Park. Rogers Pass was so designated for its importance in the construction and development of the country's first major national transportation route.

Open all year round, it's an outdoor paradise for the adventurer! You can scale jagged mountain peaks, camp out under the stars next to glacier rivers, or take a summer strool and cycle through the rainforest. Picnic in an avalanche path in summer and admire the 360 degree vista of peaks! In Winter, you'll be abe to ski some of the the deepest powder snow in the area!
