6Canada’s Columbia Icefield

Situated in the Canadian Rockies, the Columbia Icefield is one of the largest icefields in North America. Spanning over 200 square kilometers, it feeds several glaciers, including the Athabasca Glacier, which visitors can explore on guided glacier tours. The Columbia Icefield offers awe-inspiring views of ice-covered peaks and icy blue crevasses. The Ice Explorer vehicles take visitors onto the glacier itself, providing a unique opportunity to experience the icefield’s sheer scale and beauty up close.
