Dramatic landscapes are the dominant theme on every route, but perhaps none more so than this journey, which takes in the Coast Mountains range, the white-water rapids of Fraser River, and the stunning peak of Mount Robson.
Fly to Vancouver from the UK today, where you check into your hotel for the night.
Embark on your Canadian rail adventure today as you board the award-winning Rocky Mountaineer. You begin your journey from Vancouver to Kamloops passing through some simply stunning landscapes of rolling rivers, weaving in and out of the Coast and Cascade Mountains and roaring through the sinisterly-named Hell's Gate in Fraser Canyon. On arrival into the town of Kamloops, check into your hotel for an overnight stay.
Leaving Kamloops this morning, join Rocky Mountaineer once more as you head towards the magnificent Canadian Rockies, passing through gorgeous scenery. Your route sees you pass by the tallest mountain in the range, Mount Robson, as well as the crashing Pyramid Falls. You finish by ascending the wild Yellowhead Pass and stop at Jasper in the heart of the Jasper National Park.

A UNESCO World Heritage site, Jasper National Park is full of sublime natural attractions of various shapes and sizes including canyons, lakes and hotsprings.

The proud elk can be found in the forests and out on the mountains, and a variety of birdlife can be seen stalking in the cloudy mountains.
Travel to Banff today, navigating one of the finest and most scenic roads in the world - the Icefields Parkway. You journey along this snowy expanse, passing mountains and snowdrifts before you stop at the dramatic Athabasca Falls. From here, you are treated to a ride in an Ice Explorer, a special vehicle which takes you out onto the Athabasca Glacier to see this carved ice in all its tremendous glory. Stop overnight in Banff.
