The Goats & Glacier Lookout is hidden from the road by forest, so be sure to park and get out to take a look.

The viewpoint is accessible via a short path through the trees. A spectacular panorama of the Athabasca Glacier and surrounding mountains appears. Keep an eye out for mountain goats!

A Parks Canada parks pass is required to drive the Icefields Parkway ($22/day for a vehicle of up to 7 people).
