Backpacking the Yoho Valley and Iceline Trail Tour Details

Overview

Itinerary

Backpacking the Yoho Valley and Iceline Trail Itinerary

Day 1

Day 1: Meet in Canmore, Waterfall Hikes

Overnight Location - Camping in Yoho National Park | Distance - 6.9km, 145m elevation gain | Meals - Lunch, dinner

Your adventure begins with a meeting in Canmore before hitting the road to Yoho. Once arriving in the park, you’ll stop right under the magnificent Takakkaw Falls, one of the tallest waterfalls in the Canadian Rockies. Begin hiking up the Yoho Valley, passing the lovely Laughing Falls, the delicate Point Lace Falls, and Angel’s Staircase on the way to camp.

Try to decide on your favourite waterfall from today as you set up camp and eat dinner as a group.

Day 2

Day 2: Twin Falls to Little Yoho

Overnight Location - Camping in Yoho National Park | Distance - 11.4km, 725 metres elevation gain | Meals - Breakfast, lunch, dinner

Your first full day on the trails starts with a trek to Twin Falls, an amazing double waterfall off a 180-metre limestone cliff. From the chalet at the base of the falls, you’ll climb up to the very top of the falls, where the water tumbles over. It’s going to be a highlight of the trip!

From the falls, hike over a suspension bridge to the top of the Whaleback, where wonderful views of Mt. des Poilus and the Yoho Glacier await. From here, drop back into the valley and make your camp for the night.

Day 3

Day 3: Little Yoho to Canmore

Overnight Location - None | Distance - 11.4km, 175m elevation gain | Meals - Breakfast, lunch

After a warm coffee in your sleeping bag, you’ll begin your hike for the day, and you’ve saved the best for last! Begin climbing a series of switchbacks to the famous Iceline Trail, a stunning route that traverses the eastern flank of The Vice President. You’ll have glaciers on one side and aerial views of the waterfalls you’ve passed on the other.

After a break at the Iceline summit, keep traversing, then dip down into the valley. With one last view of Takakkaw Falls to send you off, it’s back to Canmore. You can choose to go out to dinner tonight with the group to celebrate your trek!
