Resorts in the Canadian Rockies

The Canadian Rockies evoke a vision of wilderness at its best: snow-capped mountains, green forests, crystalline streams, brisk air and wild animals in their natural habitat. Canada has established a series of parks in the Canadian Rockies to preserve this natural beauty. Visitors get to enjoy the majesty of the Rocky Mountains thanks to the resorts that have sprung up around these natural wonders.
