Columbia Icefield Snocoach Tours
100 Gopher Street
About
The Athabasca Glacier offers an up close and personal visit to a small portion of the Columbia Icefields. A major attraction is Brewster Tour's, "Glaciers in Motion," a nine and a half-hour interpretive tour of the glacier from within the comfort of a "Snocoach," a customized tour bus equipped with huge all-terrain tires that drives up onto the glacier itself. The company recently added the Columbia Icefield Scenic Walk, which gives intrepid tourists a chance to get up close and personal with the retreating glacier, as well as hear about its rich history. Checkout the company website for more information about tour schedule.
