Quotes From the Field:
"Our guides Marcy and Jill were unbelievable. I never thought they could surprise us with so many extras every day. Both are 100% dedicated, professional and embody a level of excitement I have never seen with any guides before. Their passion makes me even more excited about the Canadian Rocky experience."

Go on a Canadian Rockies Adventure with Austin-Lehman Adventures
A vast wilderness of soaring peaks, age-old glaciers, spectacular alpine lakes and broad, sweeping valleys
From the quiet backcountry roads of Kananaskis valley to the spectacular mountain landscape of Banff and Lake Louise, journey deep into the heart of the Canadian Rockies on this world-class 6 day Rocky Mountain biking adventure.
By day, pedal quiet, zigzagging pathways through Kananaskis Country (or K-Country, as it is affectionately known), pausing to snap a photo of a black bear lumbering alongside a pristine glacial stream. Navigate the shores of Lake Minnewanka and pedal to Two Jack Lake where turquoise waters reflect mirror images of the surrounding mountains. Let the crisp mountain air fill your lungs on an exhilarating ride down Highwood Pass, hike to the toe of Athabasca glacier and saddle up for an awesome ride down the Columbia Icefields Parkway, aptly rated one of the Top 10 cycle tours of the world.
By night, relax in a bubbly whirlpool and savor a well-earned dinner before cozying up in the casual comfort of your Rocky Mountain lodge or chalet.
