Top Alberta ATV Tours

Perfect for newbies, this canyoning experience at Heart Creek Canyon, near Banff and Canmore, features a relatively easy approach and amazing scenery. A popular hiking destination, Heart Creek serves as an ideal location to learn how to rope rappel. Rappels progressively increase in length, culminating with a 60-foot (18 meter) waterfall rappel and slide.

Launch from Cochrane, a gritty cowboy town where prairies collide with Alberta’s towering Rockies. Ghost Lake dazzles first, its sapphire waters a mirror for jagged peaks that pierce the sky. In summer, quad bikes growl along the Ghost Lakeshore Trail, a 50km off-road beast of dusty switchbacks and heart-stopping drops. Tires chew through wildflower fields, splashing across streams as engines scream against granite cliffs. Winter unleashes a snowmobiler’s dream—rip through powdery trails at 100km/h, carving under snow-heavy pines, the icy wind a wild rush. Deeper in, Waiparous Valley Creek pulses with life. Emerald waters thunder through canyons, daring quad riders to conquer the 30km Waiparous Creek OHV Trail. In winter, snowmobiles rule, shredding untouched snowfields and frozen creek beds, with toasty huts for swapping tales post-ride. This isn’t just a tour—it’s a heart-pounding dance with Alberta’s untamed soul, blending raw beauty with quad and snowmobile thrills.
