Snowshoe Trek in Banff

When making your reservation, you can choose between two snowshoeing tours in Banff, both including hotel pickup and drop-off, transport by bus or minibus, snowshoe and pole rental, and an English-speaking guide.

Here are the specifics of each option:

Trek through Paint Pots

At your chosen time, we will pick you up from your hotel and head west to the boundary of Kootenay National Park, a half-hour from the city. After gearing up, we'll embark on a 3-km (1.86-mile) snowshoe hike. Enjoy the snow and view historic Paint Pots and frozen lakes of Banff.

The Paint Pots are mineral deposits historically used for painting rocks. A break will be included for hot chocolate and maple syrup candy. After 4 hours of activity, we'll return to the starting point and drop you at your hotel.

Trek through Marble Canyon

At the selected time, we'll meet at your hotel and head to Kootenay National Park for a snowshoeing tour in Marble Canyon. This stunning 40-meter (131-foot) limestone gorge has been shaped by Tokumn Creek. Listen for fascinating facts about the surrounding environment and look for animal tracks.

After the hike, indulge in hot maple syrup poured into snow to create a sweet frozen candy. After 4 hours of activity, we will return to your hotel in Banff.
