4 Day Cycling Tour through the Rockies
With no roof to restrict your view, a 300-kilometre bicycle tour from Jasper to Canmore
with Mountain Madness Tours, becomes an adventure for the body, mind, and soul.
Ride unhurried along spacious shoulders, enjoying the company of ancient trees and
mighty, snow-capped peaks.
The tour traverses two national parks via the spectacular Icefields Parkway between
Jasper and Lake Louise, and the calm pace offers ample time to take in views of endless
mountains, glaciers, lakes, waterfalls, and wildlife. Cycle the Bow Valley Parkway to
Banff before setting off for the final destination, Canmore, on the Legacy Trail bike
path. You’ll travel this impressive distance over four days to enjoy a great balance of
riding, sightseeing, and relaxation.
The support service provides transfers to Jasper for you and your bike (bike rentals
available) from Western Canadian gateways such as Edmonton or Calgary. Your
luggage is carried for you; all you need to do is ride. Should you need anything – a hill
reprieve, assistance with your bike, or access to your belongings, the support van will
always be just around the corner. Rest stops complete with food and beverages are set
up along the way to keep you nourished and hydrated.
Each day culminates at unique and beautiful accommodations. Enjoy dinner in
the laid-back atmosphere of a rustic mountain setting as the day’s adventures are
