The Legendary Mountains of Canada
January 21st, 2010 | Author: admin
This is one of the icons that are always inherent in Canada. It is a mountainous area known as the Canadian Rockies. Natural beauty always managed to make every eye that looked at fell in love at first sight.
All that made from the beautiful natural landscape with snow, Glaciers, lakes, waterfalls, and other natural wealth.
A total of 5 national parks around the Canadian Rockies, the Banff National Park, Jasper National Park, Waterton National Park, Glacier National Park, and Yoho National Park. Except Waterton National Park, it was included in the UNESCO World Heritage list.
The journey usually starts from the town of Valemount, which becomes the gate of the Canadian Rockies. Next will pass through Jasper National Park to see Mount Robson, which is the highest mountain in the Rockies Mountain. Jasper’s journey through the city itself was very entertaining with beautiful scenery along the road.
Next to the Columbia Ice Field to visit the Athabasca Glacier, see natural wonders created by snow that fell since 400 years ago and Glaciers with a special car to slide on the ice field. In this area can also enjoy the beauty of the iceberg from a height of 3000 meters at the base surface of the sea.
From here, Peyto Lake blue usually be the next port and then to Banff National Perk. There is where the green Lake Louise with the reflection of Mount Victorial and the Glacier.
From here we can go to Mount Sulfur by using a cable car, see beautiful waterfalls Bow, or see the Hoodoos, the mushrooms that have been petrified by natural processes over thousands of years.
There are many more that can be traced, such as Drumheller town to visit the smallest church which contains only 6 people and the Royal Tyrrell Museum Palaentology to see dinosaur skeletons.
Every person who ever been there is often said, told the Canadian Rockies have never seemed sufficient to said the word, but must be felt immediately every sensation it gives.
