The Columbia Icefield Adventure is a total bucket-list moment! 🧊❄️ We rode the Ice Explorer right onto the glacier (yes, you can walk on 10,000-year-old ice!) and then stepped out onto the Skywalk — a glass-floored cliff edge with jaw-dropping views. It’s thrilling, surreal, and absolutely worth the trip from Jasper! 🚍👣🌨️

If you're visiting Jasper, don’t skip the Jasper SkyTram! 🚠 The ride up is smooth and scenic, but the real magic happens at the top — panoramic views, cool alpine air, and an epic summit hike that’s surprisingly doable.

If you’re in the Ottawa area, Omega Park is an absolute must-visit! Just a 1-hour drive away, this place offers an incredible safari-style experience where you can see Canadian wildlife up close in a natural setting.🌟 The 12 km driving trail is the highlight—imagine elk, deer, wolves, and bears right outside your car! The best part? You can feed the deer carrots through your window (bring lots, they love them!). And don’t miss the bison—these massive, majestic animals roam freely, creating a truly wild and awe-inspiring sight. Beyond the drive, there are beautiful walking trails, a wolf observatory, and a farm area where you can meet adorable animals. In the winter, the snowy landscapes make everything feel like a fairytale. Everything is well-maintained, the staff is friendly, and the experience is unforgettable. Whether you're traveling solo, as a couple, or with family, this place is pure magic. Definitely one of the best day trips from Ottawa! 🚗✨ Would 100% visit again! 🦌🍁

Ramada by Wyndham Hinton is consistently praised for its cleanliness and friendly service. With a complimentary hot breakfast and free parking, it’s an ideal stop to recharge before heading into the Rockies.

Just off Highway 16, the Holiday Inn Hinton offers clean, spacious rooms. It's perfect for a relaxing night before your Jasper adventure.

We enjoyed our stay at Tru by Hilton Edmonton Windermere — it was clean, modern, and quiet! 🛌✨ The minimalist design and comfortable beds made it easy to relax after a long day of travel. Ideal for a peaceful night before continuing on your Alberta adventure!
