Mountain Biking in Alberta

Southeastern Alberta's rolling prairies are crisscrossed by a grid system of secondary and gravel roads. Many paved roads have the wide shoulders that cyclists adore.
One of Western Canada's most popular tours is the scenic and challenging 300-km Icefields Parkway between Jasper and Banff. Kananaskis Country also has some scenic routes. Try to time your visit outside the peak tourist season when the roads are not jammed with cars and the campsites are more readily available.
