National Geographic’s Canadian Rockies Destination Map strikes the perfect balance between map and guidebook and is an ideal resource for touring this culturally and geographically unique region. Canada’s share of the Rocky Moutains averages approximately 100 miles across (160 kilometers) and runs from Waterton Lakes National Park on the Alberta-Montana border northwest towards the Yukon territory. Some of the extra features include:

• Charts detailing visitor centers and nearby state parks
• Colorful photographs featuring the region’s enchanting landscape

You’ll always be on the correct route with our folding travel maps. Your adventure starts here!
