The Canadian Rockies comprise the Canadian segment of the Rocky Mountains range, extending from the Interior Plains of Alberta to the Rocky Mountain Trench of British Columbia.
Alberta isn’t called Canada’s Rocky Mountain Playground for nothing. Banff, Jasper and Lake Louise are beautiful towns within the Banff and Jasper National Parks, with glacial lakes and rugged snow-capped peaks.
The Canadian Rockies mean plenty of skiing, ice fishing, hunting, even a little gay life in the provinces! There is something for everyone to enjoy - riding a gondola to the summit of a magnificent mountain or whitewater rafting with the Rocky Mountains as a backdrop.
Calgary, with a large gay community, exudes the best of cowboy culture and is packed with urban excitement. Come tip your hat to the men and women who make the city a thriving centre for arts, culture, wine and food, exhilarating gay nightlife and fantastic festivals like the Gay Rodeo & Music Festival in June.
