I’ll admit, when I planned my trip to the Canadian Rockies in mid-October I was hoping for gorgeous colorful leaves and pumpkin spice vibes. What I got was a full on winter wonderland! Although I was disappointed that a number of things I wanted to see and do were already closed for the season (more on that later), I consider myself lucky to have seen the Rockies in their gorgeous winter glory – and with far less crowds than if I had gone during the peak summer months. I ended up having many of the stunning lakes and waterfalls all to myself! Here are just a few photos of the incredible beauty that stole my heart. I hope they steal yours and convince you that a wintertime trip to the Canadian Rockies should be on your bucket list!

Stunning pics! I dunno if I’ll ever get a chance to head to the American continent in future. No immediate plans though. So, for now, thanks for the virtual tour…

Wow, that Rockies in their gorgeous winter glory is something I should really experience and see. You may have expected other things, but I guess this must have really left you in awe. Your photos really speak about the innate beauty of Canadian Rockies filled with white snow. I find it really stunning to just gaze and commune to its beauty. Thank you so much for sharing this with us.

As someone living in Scandinavia, I am in love with the Northern Nature. Canada reminds me of that so much! So far, I have only been to BC, but wanna see more.

You certainly convinced me to go to the Canadian Rockies. I’ve been to many parts of Canada, but never there. The waterfalls are simply stunning! And I love the blue-green color of the water too.

My husband has been bugging me for so long to go on a trip in the Canadian Rockies. I am seriously afraid to show him your photos as I know that his words will be “See?! I told you it’s amazing!” 🙂 And yes, your photos make one want to jump on a plane and head to the Rockies. I hope we will one day get there and admire the views in person! thanks

I think I went when it was too cold for the wildlife to be out. I only saw a few elk on the side of the road one day!

Stunning photographs. I recently visited but it was in the peak of winter and all the lakes were frozen and covered in snow! It was still beautiful though. The Canadian Rockies are definitely a place you’d want to go back to and see in different seasons! Great seeing your shots!

I must admit that we have always been to the Rockies in the summer. So it was enchanting to see the views with snow. Although I am sure it would have been equally stunning with fall colours. Looking through your pictures reminds me that there are still many places we have not visited. One day! (LD Holland)
