BikingThe most popular cycling adventure in the Canadian Rockies is the 287km (178-mile) trip between Banff and Jasper along the Icefields Parkway, one of the world's most magnificent mountain roads. If you're fit and ready for a high elevation ride, but don't want to bother with the logistics yourself, consider signing on with a bike-touring outfitter. An Internet search will reveal dozens of tour operators; Canusa Cycle Tours (tel. 800/938-7986 or 403/703-5566; www.canusacycletours.com) offers 6-day supported trips starting at C$975 (US$780). If you'd prefer a self-guided tour, simply rent a bike in Banff or Lake Louise and peddle along the Bow Valley Parkway -- Highway 1A -- between Banff and Lake Louise, which makes an easy day trip for the average cyclist.

Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip.
