I just returned, for the 3rd time in the last 4 years. Watching this makes me want to go back. If you have never been moved by the beauty that is canada..take that road trip. It will change your life.
Coming from Sri Lanka, an island surrounded by Indian Ocean, Canadian Rockies is the mightiest thing I witnessed in Canada. Energy around mountains is always different. Looking forward to explore more!!
Wow that was a while ago? Did you visit Vancouver? I had a voice over artist do a German Translation for this video. Let me know what you think! czcams.com/video/Oi1GQnFaUXU/video.html
Grew up in B.C and there are so many Mtn lakes to choose from,many times went to them and we had them all weekend to yourselves,great times fishing,fish for breakfast then fish for fun(catch and release) then for supper
This was such an amazing video. I'm from a beautiful place - Brazil, but there's something about the rockies. Its a dreamy spot for me. Thanks so much I had a great time watching it. One day I'll be able to go to every place you've described
Awesome film. I was able to see much of it myself last summer, but only one and a halve week in the Rockies isn’t long enough to see all. Another reason to make another Canada trip in the future.
Antoine I totally agree. 1.5 weeks isn't a bad amount of time to spend in the Rockies but two to three weeks is ideal if you really want to see it all, and spend some quality time at each amazing experience.
Hi from the UK. What a beautiful and inspiring video. I visited the Rockies a few years ago with my father and vowed to return there is no place like it on earth. Thank you for sharing this.
I am so grateful I discovered your channel--this production is just first-rate in every conceivable way, and the beauty of these parks is awe-inspiring, just spectacular. Thank you so much for the work, time and effort it must have taken to produce this--I am a lover of the outdoors, and Glacier National Park so far is the most amazing place I have personally visited, but I have not visited any of these parks--I will!! As crazy as the world often seems to be these days, it is natural beauty like this that makes this life journey so worthwhile. If you are lucky enough to have experienced these places in person, well, then, you're lucky enough . . .! Thank you again.
My family and I spent 3 days driving from Kansas City to get to Banff and Jasper last year. It was a wonderful experience. Something to cherish and remember for a lifetime. I watched your videos before we visited. Thank you.
I visited almost all the places. thank you for a wonderful documentary that reminded me of these places. my son and I drove from Bragg creek to Golden, etc.
Hi from Florida USA. Great video! I'm visiting for the first time in August. Your magical footage made me feel more comfortable going it alone about the bear country. I needed that. ✌️
Great video and narration! Thanks for sharing. I'm definitely coming back to the Canadian Rockies and will be adding Mt Assiniboine and Mt. Robson/Berg Lake to my itinerary. The photos I've seen of those spots are out of this world.
My husband and I just visited Banff recently. Got to see the Rockies and the prairies. I just fell in love🥰❤️❤️❤️ and since then I kept looking for videos that feature the Rockies. Grateful I found your channel. ❤
What a great film! I am planning a cross Canada camping trip next summer and now I want to go more than ever! You captured the natural beauty of the area so well! Thank you.
Absolutely love this video, thanks for creating and sharing. I am well on my way to coming to Canada with a few family members already making Canada their home and contributing positively to the lifestyle. My dream, no... my "reality" is that one day, I will share this experience up close and in person.
Moira it is my pleasure. You will have a great time! You can get extra useful travel tips for Banff and Jasper on my website insiderstravelguidecanada.com/ I hope it helps.
Im visiting in The early fall 2024, for the first time. Your videos and photography are simple amazing. Truly want to embrace it all but really want to see wildlife and landscapes!!! Thank you for a wonderful video, and I will be watching more of your videos.
What a beautiful video. Many thanks for sharing. My wife and went there for the first time 26 years ago and have returned 13 times already and can't wait to go back. The Canadian Rockies are truly a special place (and, like you, we have been to many wonderful places). Wishing you many more years of happiness and good health in the Canadian Rockies.
Canadian rockies are the most magnificent spot for my husband and me, we were dreaming to see them when we come to Canada. Now we have this opportunity and are planning our journey next spring🙌 Thank you for sharing this beauty ❤️
Oh wow! That is awesome. You will LOVE it here. You can also visit my website insiderstravelguidecanada.com/ to help you plan and get's lots of good info as well. Good luck with your planning!
Wonderful video, thanks for sharing! Dream coming true six weeks from now to visit all of these parks and as well Glacier and Mt. Revelstoke and also to do so with family and friends coming from many directions :)
@@InsidersTravelGuideCanada Absolutely, your video captures the great beauty of Canada, seen all the wild life in Jasper was just like I had dream it. Your work is very well documented and expressed, keep the good work. I was up there for inspiration for my next new oil paintings. God bless!
My wife and I so enjoyed watching this video! In 2019 as a 40th wedding anniversary my wife dragged me kicking and screaming to all four of these parks. (I wanted to go visit my relatives in Newfoundland) It was also my retirement year. My wife had to drag me away from these beautiful parks I am so glad that we saw these awesome parks. Thank you for this video there was only so much we could see in two weeks, but we went to +80% of the places in your video. At 69 I hope I can visit there again!
Sounds like your wife is like my wife...they know better than we do LOL! I'm glad she dragged you out West. It sounds like you really enjoyed it. It's such an amazing place. No words.
Hi. Thank you for this video. I live in the U.K. I was in Banff in December 2022 the temp was -37. But I loved it. Did as much as I could in the cold. Came back with my daughter and granddaughter April this year. Miss the majestic mountains. So thank you. My next visit has to be Jasper. Still working that out as I don’t drive.
This is just incredible. Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful documentary. I am solo travelling to Banff this fall and I find videos like yours are what I am really looking for. Also, your voice is so soothing and perfect! Thanks so much.
Thanks Shannon I'm so happy you enjoyed my video! Be sure to visit my website as well if you want extra information on planning your dream Canadian Rockies trip. insiderstravelguidecanada.com/ and make sure you watch my bear safety video is you are hiking solo. But my advice is find some friends to hike with as a small group if you can. Have a great trip!!! Fall is amazing in the Rockies. Look for the Larches at the top of the tree lines this time of year. Gorgeous.
This is by far the best video I have seen, and one of the few that I watched all the way through, well done, thanks for sharing. My wife and I had the privilege of visiting this area in 2015 and I want to visit again.
What a great and inspiring video. I was looking for videos about the Rockies and I would never imagine finding a video like this, as you said, it's intimate.
Incredibly soothing film! Just came back home yesterday from a week long trip in Banff and Jasper and I got recommended your video today. The entire 30 minute video felt like a minute-long soft breeze and was a very emotional throwback to my trip. Absolutely loved it! Perfect closure to my trip.
Really enjoyed your documentary about this wonderful area. Along with our two daughters (9 & 11), we visited Norway earlier this summer and are left longing to get back to that feeling of awe. We are considering the Banff area for the last week of May '24. Thanks for this window into what we can look forward to.
I am sure many have told you similar. My wife and I have been watching videos of BC and more. Then we watched your video. We gotta say it's one of the best videos of the Rockies we have ever seen. Very informative, and the video quality and content is fantastic. Thank you for this. Andre
Max thank you. I'm glad you love the video. I hope you get to see it in person one day. I also want to add that Canada is pushing hard for your freedom in Ukraine. I hope you find peace soon and that you can go on holidays like this to see the parts of the world that you dream of.
You are welcome big time. I hope you have a dream holiday in the Canadian Rockies! Make sure you visit my travel planner website to help you in your plans. insiderstravelguidecanada.com/
Wonderful video. I have been to many of these places, but you have captured them all at their best. My Uncle, in Kamloops, was the best tour guide we could have had, long before CZcams. I have cousins in Kelowna, Ashcroft, Red Deer, and, Merritt - where there is nothing of any merit!!
There is some Meritt to this LOL! And thank you for your kind words. I certainly enjoyed filming all of this. It's been a work of passion to say the least.
After living for 27 years in Alberta I have developed a connection to the Mountains which never left me. Now I am retired and living on V-Island, I still missing the spirit of the Mountains. Thank you for keeping that memory a live for me. I realy appreciate that.
I have yet to go, but my favorite place in Yoho National Park would have to be Lake O'Hara. I tried twice last year to get a bus ticket but was unsuccessful. I'm planning on forking up the money for 3 nights at Lake O'Hara Lodge for August of 2024.
@Insiders Travel Guide Canada I agree that out of all the top expensive places to stay in that area, Banff Springs downtown, Lake Louise Chateau, Moraine Lake Lodge. To me I rather fork up the money for nights at Lake O'Hara Lodge. I have to call in July to book nights at Lake O'Hara Lodge for August of 2024. I think 3 nights will be a good 1st time at Lake O'Hara.
Phenomenal extremely well done and enjoyable video. Excellent videography and background music choice. I can tell that you are truly passionate about your subject and you embrace my motto of “BE where you are”. I’m currently planning my third visit to the Canadian Rockies and found your video very inspiring. Thank you so much for sharing this with the world.
Wow thanks Tom I appreciate that. Yes, BE where you are. And honestly, editing this video brings me back to every one of those special moments in time like it's right now. One of the rewards to having captured that video is being able to re-live the moments with such clarity.
Greeting, Great job, very much enjoyed. I am reaching out as I am at the very beginning phases of planing a horse pack trip from Glacier park in Montana to the southern tip of Alaska. Finding the route will probably take longer than the trip. I am reaching out to everyone I think may have some insight and contacts. My friends are asking me to set up a channel to video this whole thing, so if I do, to make it interesting would be to invite local people, first nation, historians etc. that can provide information / history of the area to ride along for a few days and have campfire chats,( if fires are allowed). Challenges to maintaining it etc. Would appreciate any advice or counsel you may have. Who knows, have you ever spent 3 weeks riding a horse from Banff to Jasper? :-) Would be a great video and promotional video for the park...just pondering. Thank you in advance for your time and thank you for the informative videos. Clear skies and safe trails. Greg
wow! well done. I would love to learn from you on what lenses you use and what is your strategy for back round music. (if you use royalty free services)
Great video. Very helpful for us to plan our trip next year. I did have one question though. What focal length lens would you recommend to be able to photograph bears the way you have? Thanks in advance.
Your cabin you are narrating from - what is the brand of that woodstove? I need to find one of those, looks incredible with that big glass window! Good combination of seeing the fire and heating that area. Thanks.
It's actually a gas stove! I had a wood stove for years but it was too much work keeping stocked with wood. But the flame in this one looks very natural.
Planning our first trip this summer. Can you talk about the seasons? Campgrounds? I’m so excited. We care coming up from the USA. Been to Glacier years ago.
The Canadian Rocky 's are very beautiful. You die a great job portraying them. I am from the Netherlands but wist i had been born Canadian. Is september a good time to visit?
Your video is a superb presentation of some of Canada's Rocky Mountain national parks but I'd say you made a common error and missed one of the highlights of the parks in the Rockies....Waterton Lakes National Park in the S.W. corner of Alberta and a partner park with Glacier National Park in Montana. A smaller park, to be sure, but no less scenic and (as it happens) an internationally recognized "Dark Place" nighttime sky viewing.
I agree 110% about Waterton Lakes National Parks. It's on my list and I plan on going there next spring and summer to capture it's incredible beauty. I love the cinamon bears there and Red Rock Canyon and so much more!
Good question! Many things actually. Just being there first of all. I spent over 10 years filming most of these shots and the wildlife came on their own terms. However, time of year, location, and time of day are the biggest factors. Get to know your critters. When are they most active? What are they eating at what times of year? So many things. I know you'll enjoy the journey.
THANK YOU SO MUCH !....Oh I wish I could trade place with you...this is where I am totally at peace...in the middle of God's creation...I just cannot wait for the restored paradise, when we will be able to live in peace with all the animals and we will have forever to enjoy every corner of these marvellous parks...we might meet then (Leviticus 26:6) I will put peace in the land, and you will lie down with no one making you afraid; and I will rid the land of vicious wild animals, and a sword of war will not pass through your land. (Isaiah 11:6-9) The wolf will reside for a while with the lamb, And with the young goat the leopard will lie down, And the calf and the lion and the fattened animal will all be together; And a little boy will lead them. 7 The cow and the bear will feed together, And their young will lie down together. The lion will eat straw like the bull.
My sister has lived there in jasper for 30 years . I bought 8 homes in jasper and making millions don’t even pay taxes 😂, you. Better be a billionaire if you want to buy into a hotel !, you forgot to mention that Canada does not own Banff !
I wonder if Bob Ross ever visited these Rockies. He loved Alaska, so I'm thiking these Rockies would blow his mind. Not to mention, he would run out of paints, literally everywhere is a post card. Sadly , I don't have any camping or hiking skills so I'm stuck in the city.
Me and my girlfriend did a road trip from Montreal to Lake Louise this summer. I miss the locals, the views and the peace every single day
I just returned, for the 3rd time in the last 4 years. Watching this makes me want to go back. If you have never been moved by the beauty that is canada..take that road trip. It will change your life.

Of course. 1997, 2000 and 2003 Vancouver was the start and endpoint of our camping tours. Great video about this wonderful city, so many memories... 😊
Nice documentary! When we lived in the PNW we used to love going to BC and Alberta. Nice to have your channel to revisit these awesome places! Thanks!
Thanks for watching!
Grew up in B.C and there are so many Mtn lakes to choose from,many times went to them and we had them all weekend to yourselves,great times fishing,fish for breakfast then fish for fun(catch and release) then for supper

Thank you in advance for your time and thank you for the informative videos. Clear skies and safe trails. Greg
wow! well done. I would love to learn from you on what lenses you use and what is your strategy for back round music. (if you use royalty free services)
Great video. Very helpful for us to plan our trip next year. I did have one question though. What focal length lens would you recommend to be able to photograph bears the way you have? Thanks in advance.
Your cabin you are narrating from - what is the brand of that woodstove? I need to find one of those, looks incredible with that big glass window! Good combination of seeing the fire and heating that area. Thanks.
It's actually a gas stove! I had a wood stove for years but it was too much work keeping stocked with wood. But the flame in this one looks very natural.
@@InsidersTravelGuideCanada thanks for the response!
Planning our first trip this summer. Can you talk about the seasons? Campgrounds? I’m so excited. We care coming up from the USA. Been to Glacier years ago.
You are going to have a great Summer! Will you be camping the whole time?
Yes. We have our 31ft fifth wheel. We don’t need hook ups. We have solar and generator.
I’m so excited. We love to canoe and do easy hikes.
The Canadian Rocky 's are very beautiful. You die a great job portraying them. I am from the Netherlands but wist i had been born Canadian. Is september a good time to visit?
Thank you so much! And yes, September is probably my most favorite time in the Rockies and a GREAT time to visit.
Your video is a superb presentation of some of Canada's Rocky Mountain national parks but I'd say you made a common error and missed one of the highlights of the parks in the Rockies....Waterton Lakes National Park in the S.W. corner of Alberta and a partner park with Glacier National Park in Montana. A smaller park, to be sure, but no less scenic and (as it happens) an internationally recognized "Dark Place" nighttime sky viewing.
I agree 110% about Waterton Lakes National Parks. It's on my list and I plan on going there next spring and summer to capture it's incredible beauty. I love the cinamon bears there and Red Rock Canyon and so much more!

What is the key to finding wild animals? I have tried to go to Colorado recently and didn't see anything but maybe a few deer
Good question! Many things actually. Just being there first of all. I spent over 10 years filming most of these shots and the wildlife came on their own terms. However, time of year, location, and time of day are the biggest factors. Get to know your critters. When are they most active? What are they eating at what times of year? So many things. I know you'll enjoy the journey.
@@InsidersTravelGuideCanada Thanks!
where is that opening shot?
Up above the Bee Hive Lake Louise. Wonderful place!!!
THANK YOU SO MUCH !....Oh I wish I could trade place with you...this is where I am totally at peace...in the middle of God's creation...I just cannot wait for the restored paradise, when we will be able to live in peace with all the animals and we will have forever to enjoy every corner of these marvellous parks...we might meet then
(Leviticus 26:6) I will put peace in the land, and you will lie down with no one making you afraid; and I will rid the land of vicious wild animals, and a sword of war will not pass through your land.
(Isaiah 11:6-9) The wolf will reside for a while with the lamb, And with the young goat the leopard will lie down, And the calf and the lion and the fattened animal will all be together; And a little boy will lead them. 7 The cow and the bear will feed together, And their young will lie down together. The lion will eat straw like the bull.
My sister has lived there in jasper for 30 years . I bought 8 homes in jasper and making millions don’t even pay taxes 😂, you. Better be a billionaire if you want to buy into a hotel !, you forgot to mention that Canada does not own Banff !

I wonder if Bob Ross ever visited these Rockies. He loved Alaska, so I'm thiking these Rockies would blow his mind. Not to mention, he would run out of paints, literally everywhere is a post card. Sadly , I don't have any camping or hiking skills so I'm stuck in the city.
