Motorcycle riders love the extraordinary scenery on our tour through Canada's West. Why? It seems as if all of the pine tree forests, sparkling lakes and rivers and mountain ranges of the world can be found here in the West of Canada. This spectacular ride will leave you with 2,000 miles of memories.
The Canadian Rockies are located at the northern end of the North American Rocky Mountain Range and run through two of Canada’s provinces: Alberta and British Columbia. However, towns like Jasper or Banff will make you feel like you’re in the Great White North. The famous Icefields Parkway with its snow-capped mountaintops is surrounded by beautiful blue water and enormous glaciers and also Mount Robson, the highest peak in the Canadian Rockies, is part of our tour.
Not only does this part of North America offer excellent sightseeing, but the curving roads and the beautiful scenery will make it difficult for you to distinguish dream from reality – not surprising in this paradise!

I have been touring with Edelweiss Bike Travel since 2011 and since then I have done about 8 tours with them. My Canada West Tour is among my favorites. From the beauty of the Canadian Rockies, to the oceanside metropolises of Seattle and Vancouver the tour was conducted at a perfect pace, with plenty of time to see all the sites and enough rest days at just the perfect times and places. The knowledge and amiability of the tour guides, Ed and Mike, only made the perfect trip more perfect! I made lifetime friends on this tour and hope to see them all again on another tour. If you have ever wanted to see the Pacific Northwest or the Canadian Rockies, I highly recommend this tour.
