Dramatic landscapes and an extreme seasonal climate mean Canadians have always had to be inventive about travelling their own country. There are Rocky Mountains to overcome, rivers that can freeze solid, coastal islands, vast areas with more lakes than land, and some of Canada's Northern communities have no road access at all. Innovative new modes of transport are always being developed and some old methods preserved. Here are many of the fun and fabulous ways to travel in Canada.
Form a team
Lay some tracks
Saddle up
North America and horseback riding go together like coffee and cream. So get your western wear on and join a pack trip for a week in the wilds of Banff National Park or the Chilcotin Mountains of British Columbia. Overnight in tents or lodges depending on your need for creature comforts.
