You will wake this morning to the beauty of the Canadian Rockies, as you continue your rail journey to Jasper, morning coffee and a full Canadian breakfast are offered prior to your arrival in Jasper. The staff of the Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge will meet you at the train station and transfer you to the Lodge. Jasper has one of the finest golf courses in Canada. When the Lodge installed their sprinkler system, the local elk population thought it was done on their behalf. Bring your camera, as munching elk are not unusual. Consider a visit to Mt. Edith Cavil, or the Jasper Tramway, the longest aerial tramway in Canada where Whistler Mountain offers breathtaking views and a mountaintop restaurant. Overnight - Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge
Day 4 - Jasper to Lake Louise
Your transfer to Lake Louise leaves at 12:50PM. The drive is beautiful. Your arrival at the Chateau gives you time to view the lake and enjoy the grounds before dinner. The beauty of Lake Louise and the Chateau is unique. Only when you see the view from the Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise can you understand why people say it must be seen to be believed. Overnight - Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise
Day 5 - Lake Louise to Banff
Enjoy a leisurely morning at Lake Louise and plan an afternoon transfer to Banff. When you arrive at the Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel, you will see that it is a village within a hotel.
