So dreamy! Canada's Must-Visit Glacier Hotel & Icefield Tour

Stay in the hard-to-find Glacier Hotel From the evening of the first day, when I was looking at the Athabasca Glacier on the Columbia Icefield from a distance in the lobby, to the morning of the second day, when the glacier snowmobile with tires taller than me took me head-on into it… My world, at this moment, only the dreamy glacier blue 🩵 · 🧊Glacier View Lodge On the Icefield Parkway in Banff➡️Jasper, opposite is the Athabasca Glacier, take photos by the floor-to-ceiling windows in the lobby📸 Downstairs is the Columbia Icefield Discovery Center, which is very convenient for going to the glacier/skywalk The room is simple and comfortable, ⚠️It is hard to find a room, be sure to book in advance...🥹 · 🧊Athabasca Glacier The Columbia Icefield, where the glacier is located, is the largest ice field relic outside the Arctic Circle. I think there will be few opportunities to step on the glacier in my lifetime. Riding on an ice sled with tires taller than me🛞, it feels like a polar expedition, so cool‼ ️There is a slope of nearly 45 degrees, like riding a slow roller coaster🎢 Step onto the ice field and get in close contact with the glacier. The ice surface is a crystal blue in the sun. The glacier, the blue sky, the snow-capped mountains... It's a dreamy and shocking experience ❄️ 💡tips ✔️Do not go beyond the designated area of ​​the glacier during the activity, stay only 20 minutes during the whole trip, and pay attention to the return time ✔️The wind is strong and the temperature is low on the glacier, so take good warm-keeping measures🧣. It is not too cold in the summer when there is sunshine, but a windproof jacket is still necessary. · 🧊Skywalk The circular transparent glass plank road is suspended above the glacier. 🉑 Feel the embrace of the Rocky Mountains and overlook the ice field glacier under your feet. It's a bit exciting☁️ 🎫Book at the Columbia Icefield Discovery Center and there will be shuttle buses round trip
