Banff to Jasper Bike Guide Published

July 8, 2010

My 19th free guide – biking Banff to Jasper – has now been published. Start planning your summer bike ride along the Banff to Jasper Highway.

The 290 kilometre (180 mile) bike tour between Banff and Jasper is considered to be one of the most impressive mountain rides in the world. The ride runs parallel to the Continental Divide, and can start in either Banff or Jasper, both of which are exceptionally scenic towns.

These are a sampling of the highlights on the bike tour.

  • Stunning panoramas for the entire ride
  • Mind numbing views
  • Banff and Jasper National Parks
  • Johnston Canyon
  • The towns of Banff and Lake Louise
  • Bow Pass
  • Columbia Icefields
  • Peyto Lake
  • Wildlife sightings

The best time to cycle the Banff to Jasper Highway is in July and August. You still have time this year.
