The plan was to start in Canmore and then arrive in Castlegar 10 days, and almost 700km later while staying almost entirely on trails and gravel roads. We would be taking the 'Great Divide Trail' South from Canmore to Fernie and then take the 'Trans Canada Trail' West from Fernie to Castlegar.

The Icefields Parkway is an incredibly beautiful 230km stetech of highway from Lake Louise to Jasper with 1800m of elevation gain. We cycled it over the course of 4 days and 3 nights, camping along the way.
