Established in 1886, Glacier National Park is the second oldest park in Canada. This spectacular mountain park is located in the heart of the Columbia Mountain Range of British Columbia along the Trans-Canada Highway. At its centre, the infamous Rogers Pass enabled the original railway to break through this treacherous mountain range at great human cost. The park contains over 400 glaciers offering challenging hiking and mountain climbing experiences. The Nakimu caves are renowned for their complexity and unique formations - attracting "spelunkers" from around the world.
