Parker Ridge is our top hike recommendation on the Icefields Parkway. It offers incredible views for relatively little effort. A steady but moderate climb leads to a breathtaking overlook of the Saskatchewan Glacier, one of the most stunning sights in the Rockies.

The trail is lined with vibrant wildflowers in the summer, adding to its beauty. Parker Ridge is a must-do hike along the parkway. We love recommending it to anyone looking to go hiking while driving the Icefields Parkway. It also makes for some great photos!
