Columbia Icefield Discovery Centre

Visitors from all corners of the world flock to the Icefields Parkway, and ever since it opened in 1940, it’s been the best place to witness nature’s majesty in Canada. Witness mountains, glaciers, turquoise lakes, rivers and wildlife in a picture-book setting you have to see to believe along a winding stretch of road from Jasper to Lake Louise. At the Columbia Icefield Discovery Centre, located on the Icefields Parkway (Highway 93 N) – 1 hour south of Jasper and 2.5 hours north of Banff, visitors can learn about early travel through the Canadian Rockies.
