Western Canada in a Week (Westbound)

9 Days Total, 7 Riding Days

Trip Overview

A brand new concept for 2009, RMMH will run 2 consecutive one-way holidays from Vancouver to Calgary and back taking in all best the Rockies have to offer in as little time as possible. Guests should be aware that this particular tour will begin in Calgary, Alberta and end in Vancouver, B.C.

Our 9-day Western Canada in a Week - Eastbound holiday combines the Coast Mountains, the arid interior, the majestic Canadian Rockies, world famous Lake Louise (the most photographed lake on the planet) and breathtaking Moraine Lake into an amazing ride with a huge diversity of scenery. This holiday features a nice relaxed pace, including off-days in both Jasper & Banff, which allows for plenty of scenic stopovers and memorable destinations.

 

What to Expect

Due to the popularity of the one-way Eastbound holiday, this tour will run the exact same route in reverse (heading Westbound) as we ride from the Rockies back to the Pacific Coast. Guests should be aware that this particular tour will begin in Calgary, Alberta and end in Vancouver, B.C.

A full detailed description will be posted shortly, please check back soon.

Testimonials

“Glowing embers pierced the sky as the last of the sun’s rays turned the western edge of the Rocky Mountains into liquid gold. The sun was setting as we settled back into the hot springs’ pool. Stars popping into the gathering blue of the clear sky. Sound too good to be true? It was in the middle of a weeklong motorcycle tour with riders from all over the world, winding through the lakes and mountain ranges of Canada’s western provinces, and my rainsuit was still dry.”

Andy Saunders, Rider Magazine Feb. 1999
