Icefields Parkwayis a scenic highway in the Rocky Mountains of Alberta, Canada, also known as Highway 93. It runs from Lake Louise in the south to the town of Jasper in the north, traversing both Banff and Jasper national parks. The entire route spans over 200 km, with the road traveling primarily through mountainous terrain at an elevation of over 1,500 m. On one side of the road are snow-capped mountains and glaciers, while the other side connects to lakes, forests, and meadows. Along the way, you can see hundreds of glaciers and snow-capped peaks over 3,000 m high, making it one of the most famous scenic highways in North America. Icefields Parkwayhighlights are concentrated in the densely distributed glacial lakes and stops along the way. Peyto Lake displays a rich blue-green hue due to glacial rock flour suspended in the water, and when viewed from the observation deck, the lake shape resembles a wolf's head. Bow Lake is the source of the Bow River, and when the lake surface is calm in the early morning, the reflections of the snow-capped mountains are clear. Hector Lake, Herbert Lake, Mistaya Canyon, Crowfoot Glacier, Athabasca Falls, and Sunwapta Falls are also located right next to the highway. The Columbia Icefield area in the middle section is the highlight of the entire journey, where you can see the Athabasca Glacier cascading down from between the snow-capped peaks right from the roadside. Wildlife such as elk, bighorn sheep, and black bears are also frequently spotted along the way.Canada · Improvement District No. 9

Located in Jasper National Park, Maligne Canyon is a typical karst landform and is a must-see attraction in Jasper Park. The Maligne River, which flows from the upper Maligne Lake, passes through here, cutting a 2-kilometer-long, curved and deep canyon in the limestone. The air in the canyon is fresh, and the sides are mostly vertical cliffs, and the narrow part is only a few meters wide. Because of the large drop and the rapid water flow, there are more than ten waterfalls in the canyon, and the roar of water in the whole valley is frightening. Walk in the canyon on foot, get close to nature, and feel the magic of nature.Jasper · 7.1 km from downtown

I had a great experience after a few days. The park roads were well-maintained and driving was smooth, and the lakeside trails were clearly marked so I wouldn't get lost. Seeing wildlife in the accommodation area was a novel experience, and the guides were professional. Overall, the pace of the trip was comfortable and not tiring.

When I went to Banff in early October, it was snowing heavily. From Jasper to Banff, I truly appreciated the beauty of the Icefield Parkway. There were beautiful snow-capped mountains on both sides. It felt great to drive a Wrangler along the smooth road!

Compared with several other famous lakes, Pyramid Lake is smaller and less popular, and there were not many tourists in the past. However, the weather was clear when we went there, so the entire lake looked very beautiful.

Bad experience. A real tourist trap. The bus driver took the main road from Jasper to Maligne Lake. We saw two deer (very common, we had also seen them on the roadside the previous days) and a family of marmots (also easily visible). But the really incredible thing is that the driver showed us a spot on the lawn (it seems at the roadside) where the grass was flattened, claiming that a bear had passed there and he started playing the bear himself! The bear that eats berries. We can only call it a scam. I thought Canadians were a serious people.
