Find out how railway engineers overcame the Continental Divide's steep terrain with a visit to the serpentine Spiral Tunnels.
From a central meeting location in Calgary, heading toward the evergreen forest and granite peaks of Yoho National Park, and make a stop at Lake Louise to snap photos of its turquoise waters. In the winter, snow capped mountains surround the famous lake with Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise providing a classy backdrop.
