Reiseverlauf
Keine Reise nach Jasper ist komplett ohne einen Besuch des berühmten Columbia Icefield, dem größten Eisfeld der kanadischen Rocky Mountains. Atemberaubende Ausblicke auf hoch aufragende Berge, Felsen, Eis und reinen weißen Schnee soweit das Auge reicht. Vom Discovery Centre aus besteigen Sie einen spezialisierten Ice Explorer, der Sie über eine gefrorene Straße zum Athabasca-Gletscher bringt. Unterwegs wird Ihr Fahrer Kommentare zu Gletschern, ihren Auswirkungen auf das lokale Ökosystem und den Umweltveränderungen geben, die diese massiven landschaftlichen Wunder schnell verändern. Sobald Sie den Athabasca-Gletscher erreicht haben, haben Sie die Möglichkeit, auszusteigen, am Gletscher entlang zu wandern und sogar Ihre Wasserflasche mit reiner, unberührter Schneeschmelze zu füllen. Sobald die Tour abgeschlossen ist, begeben Sie sich zum Glacier Skywalk, wo Sie entlang des Glasbodenstegs über den Rand der Klippe hinausgehen. Nachdem Sie angehalten haben, um die unglaubliche Aussicht zu genießen und ein paar Fotos zu machen, geht es zurück zum Discovery Center.

Great experience to learn about the icefield and glaciers in this area. Logan our driver provided lots of information and answered our questions
Checking in was a breeze and friendly. Our first bus driver was awesome for our 5 minute drive to the ice bus..funny and seems to enjoy his job, can't remember his name! Our ice bus driver Chris was awesome,funny, friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating! Very lucky to have him as a guide, celebrating 50 years! What an interesting story! Our time on the glacier was awesome, a very cool experience..but yes..it is cold up there dress accordingly..and we had good weather! The Skywalk was quite something, with amazing views
Whilst travelling through Western Canada we stopped off here to take in the amazing Colombia Icefield tour. The meeting centre has a huge car park and a cafe / restaurant which us reasonably priced. We boarded a coach upto the ice fields before climbing aboard our huge 6 wheel drive ice truck! Our driver Owen was a great guide, giving lots of history and funny quids on the wag upto the glacier. We had around 20mins on the ice, temp around +6c so take a thick coat and wolley hat!. The glacier was awesome to see as was the surrounding mountains! Such shame as its retreating at such a rate due to global warming than the winters can't keep up and Owen said it could be go e in around 30 years at its current rate of melt 😩 We then travelled to the Sky Walk (10 min drive) and took in even more amazing views and braved the glass floored walkway, a really strange experience but once your on and over the initial shock it's fabulous !
This is a great experience. The glacier is beautiful and the skywalk amazing. Our driver to the glacier was Owen and he was fabulous. He is very knowledgeable and funny. I would recommend this tour.
Amazing ride on the parkway. YOU CANNOT JUST HOP ON THE NEXT BUS if you miss your time. We missed our 1:45 having been misled by the tour details. The next available time slot was 4:45. Save your stops for photo ops until the way back.
I'd never seen a glacier before so it was great to see it. But there was so much icy water that it wasn't enjoyable to walk on it. The glacier was very crowded with several tours so it wasn't easy to take photographs.
Hello alohacjm49, Thank you for sharing your experience. We’re glad you had the opportunity to see a glacier for the first time. We’re sorry that the cold melt water on the glacier made walking difficult and that the crowds made it challenging to enjoy the experience and take photographs. We truly appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you again for a more enjoyable visit. Nathaniel Cherry Assistant Guest Experience Manager
Very expensive for very little, the view is good, but also not that spectacular The Altitude restaurant is a rip-off—plates and cutlery were dirty and the buffet was completely empty and filthy. Really not recommended.
Hello ALeukers, Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that your experience did not meet expectations, particularly with the cleanliness of the restaurant and the condition of the buffet. What you described is certainly not the standard we aim to provide, and we take your comments about the plates, cutlery, and buffet presentation seriously. We’ll be sharing this feedback with our food and beverage team for follow-up. We appreciate you bringing these concerns to our attention and apologize for the disappointment. Nathaniel Cherry Assistant Guest Experience Manager
We highly recommend this tour. The trip to the Glacier is an unforgettable experience and the Skywalk was very busy but worth the trip. The guides at each step were informative and fun.
We loved the whole day tour and were extremely impressed by the beautiful vistas! The skywalk was amazing, a bit scary to walk on the glass bottom walkway. We loved the Columbia Icefield Glacier adventure! Chad our driver and host was great! He explained the details about the glacier and made the experience memorable! We still can’t get over the fact that we walked on a glacier!
Hello Explore10480550451, We are thrilled to hear that you loved your Columbia Icefield Adventure tour with your driver Chad! Walking on a glacier is certainly a once in a lifetime experience and getting information from Chad and our other drivers makes the experience that much better. Thanks for sharing, Nathaniel Cherry Assistant Guest Experience Manager
