Alberta is a province in Western Canada. Its landscape encompasses mountains, prairies, desert badlands and vast coniferous forests. It has more than 600 lakes, and rich mineral deposits. In the west, the Canadian Rocky Mountain Parks have glaciers in the Columbia Icefields. The West in the summertime means hot weather, fields of yellow canola, the “Greatest Outdoor Show” in the World, and many beautiful sights to admire. You will experience the Calgary Stampede, “The Greatest Outdoor Show on Earth”, as well as visits in the rural areas of Central Alberta and into the Canadian Rocky Mountain range. Start this great trip by a pre-tour train, boarding the “Rocky Mountaineer Rail”, for a very beautiful train ride to Banff. Canada tours, Canada holiday package.
