Icefields Parkway (Part 1) – Banff National Park 4K | Canada’s Most Beautiful Highway

Experience one of the world’s most beautiful drives — the Icefields Parkway through Banff National Park in stunning 4K. We journey north from Lake Louise and Moraine Lake toward the Columbia Icefields, following jagged mountains, rushing waterfalls, and sweeping valleys. Along the way, we stop at many iconic sights and viewpoints, including: 📍 Lake Louise & Moraine Lake (before entering Icefield Parkway) 📍 Herbert Lake 📍 Bow Lake 📍 Peyto Lake 📍 Waterfowl Lakes 📍 Mistaya Canyon 📍 Howse Pass Viewpoint (Saskatchewan River Crossing) 📍 Weeping Wall Viewpoint 📍 The Big Bend 📍 Parker Ridge Trailhead (view of Saskatchewan Glacier) This video is Part 1 of my Icefields Parkway series, covering the Banff National Park section. Use this video (and Part 2 in Jasper National Park) to help plan your own Canadian Rockies road trip. Pullouts for most viewpoints are located on the west side of the highway. 👉 Watch Part 2 (Jasper National Park):    • Icefields Parkway (Part 2) – Jasper Nation...   ⏱️ Chapters 00:00 Introduction and Map 01:09 Lake Louise, Moraine Lake, Herbert Lake 02:23 Bow Lake and Peyto Lake 03:31 Peyto Lake Viewpoint and Waterfowl Lakes 04:50 Mistaya Canyon and Howse Pass Viewpoint by Saskatchewan River Crossing 06:14 Weeping Wall Viewpoint and The Big Bend 07:30 Parker Ridge Trailhead to view of Saskatchewan Glacier 08:11 Trailer for Icefields Parkway in Jasper National Park 08:44 Ending Credits with Northern Lights (Aurora Borealis) over Peyto Lake 🌎 Explore More Playlists 👉 Canadian Rockies Journey: Banff, Jasper & Icefields Parkway –    • Canadian Rockies Journey: Banff, Jasper & ...   👉 Mountains & National Parks: Nature’s Wonders –    • Mountains & National Parks - Nature’s Wond...   🔔 Subscribe for more journeys around the world:    / @haswelltravelled   📷 Filming Notes: Captured in 4K Ultra HD / UHD. © 2023 James Haswell, Haswell Travelled.
