Description
The CANADIAN ROCKIES MAP is Gem Trek’s most popular map and a must-have for anyone planning a trip to Banff, Jasper, Yoho, or Kootenay National Parks. To make seeing the sights easier, 29 of the best points of interest in the parks are numbered and described. To help you find your way around the Canadian Rockies, mountain lodges, campgrounds, hot springs, golf courses, ski resorts, picnic areas, visitor centres and highway viewpoints are labelled. A mileage chart helps you plan your day by giving distances between major towns.
In addition to street maps of Banff, Jasper, and Lake Louise on the reverse side, we have included charts showing amenities at the national park campgrounds in Banff, Jasper, Yoho and Kootenay National Parks.
Canadian Rockies Map Coverage
Gem Trek’s Canadian Rockies covers the four contiguous national parks of the Canadian Rockies: Banff, Jasper, Kootenay, and Yoho. Coverage extends beyond the national park boundaries to Hinton in the north, Glacier National Park in the west, Abraham Lake and Rocky Mountain House in the east, and Invermere and the Columbia Valley in the south.
On the back of the map are street maps of Banff, Jasper and Lake Louise. Inset maps of Western Canada and Calgary show major roadways, so you can easily find your way to the Canadian Rockies.
