Good interpretive centre and interpretive film. Cafeteria to warm up in if visiting on a cool day and washrooms. Very busy mid day.

A full day trip. Be sure to stop at the Athabasca Falls and Sunwapta Falls along the way. At the Icefields you can walk to the toe of the glacier, take a snow coach tour out onto the ice, book the skywalk tour and explore the interpretive centre.

We took the snow bus, it's called the Columbia Icefield Adventure, and went on the Athabasca Glacier. Very fun. It's very majestic at the top of the world, as there is one of two tri-continental divides in the world within sight. (The tri-continental divide is where the point where the rivers go to 3 different oceans.) You can ask where the other one is . . .

Visiting the Columbia Icefield and the Athabasca Valley is like peering into the heart of the planet. Here, guests can fully experience the powerful force of the Columbia Icefield and learn about the fascinating history of this ever-evolving, ancient area. On this incredible experience you’ll travel on a massive Ice Explorer all-terrain vehicle to the Athabasca Glacier, a 10,000-year-old sheet of ice, where you can walk on, feel and drink from the glacier.

Walking on an alpine glacier is a once-in-a-lifetime adventure that many feel is unattainable, an experience reserved for the ultra-fit or wealthy. While that may be true for most glaciers in the Canadian Rockies, the good news is that the Columbia Icefield Glacier Adventure makes it possible for anyone to step on the crunchy surface of the Athabasca Glacier. The Athabasaca Glacier, one of eight glaciers fed by the massive Columbia Icefield, is the most visited glacier in North America. One of the reasons it receives so many visitors is because of its convenient location near the Icefields Parkway, between the towns of Banff and Jasper.
