The Columbia Icefield Ice Odyssey is an immersive glacier adventure in Jasper National Park that takes you deep onto the ancient Athabasca Glacier. Beginning at the Columbia Icefield Glacier Discovery Centre, you’ll meet your expert guide and board a purpose-built all-terrain vehicle designed to tackle the rugged glacial landscape. As you travel across the ice, you’ll learn about the glacier’s formation, its geological history, and its role in scientific research, with commentary that brings the landscape to life.

Once you reach an exclusive site on the glacier’s surface, you’ll disembark to walk on the ice itself, feel its texture, and breathe in the crisp alpine air. This small-group experience offers personalised attention and the chance to see parts of the Columbia Icefield that are not accessible on standard tours.

Throughout the approximately two-hour journey, you’ll be surrounded by mountain views and the vast expanse of one of North America’s largest icefields, making it a memorable way to connect with one of the Canadian Rockies’ most iconic natural wonders.
