Alberta - Hiking
Hiking is the most popular activity in Alberta. Mountains offer some of the most spectacular scenery. Banff national park holds the greatest variety of trails in the province. You can find anything from short interpretive trails with little elevation gain to strenuous slogs up high alpine passes. Most of the hikes are accessible by public transportation or on foot from the town of Banff. The trails in Jasper National Park are oriented more toward the experienced backpacker, offering plentiful routes for long backcountry trips. Other areas popular for hiking are Kananaskis Country, where crowds are minimal; Waterton Lakes National Park, where many trails lead to beautiful sub alpine lakes; and the province’s four wilderness areas, which are located in remote mountain regions accessible only by foot.
