Are you and your family ready for a new family adventure among the lakes, glaciers, and alpine wonderlands of Western Canada, in the Canadian Rockies? 

If so, here is a wonderful seven-day adventure for the summer months for you to consider when you make plans for your next family vacation.

Day 1

Start from Calgary Airport. Pick up your rental car, and head out of the airport.  Your family adventure in the Canadian Rockies begins with a trip to Lake Louise, about an hour outside Calgary.  Walk down to the lake and look up; it’s like you’ve stepped right into a picture postcard, where the forest around you is reflected in the mirror-like water.

There is horseback riding, all sorts of nature activities, and an impressive lodge with fine dining, to help you while away your time here.

Day 2

Start your day in the Rockies with a drive from Lake Louise to turquoise-blue Emerald Lake in Yoho National Park. 

After lunch, you will set off on an unforgettable journey along the Icefields Parkway to Jasper National Park. 

There are mountains, glaciers, waterfalls and snowfields as far as the eye can see.  There are also moose, deer, bighorn sheep, mountain goats, or bears you may see along the way.

Day 3

Enjoy a full day in Jasper National Park.  Your family can rent bikes, a canoe, a paddle boat or kayak, play tennis or racquetball, or hit a bucket of golf balls at the driving range. This is the great outdoors at its best.
