It was such a beautiful experience.<\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t underestimate how tough this trail\u00a0 is and make sure you take lots of water.

Following the trail along the rocky coastline for a whopping 47.2-miles will require plenty of advance planning and a lot of endurance. Make sure your pack is stocked with the right camping supplies so you&#8217;re prepared for rain, hail or shine.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<div>\r\n<hr style=\"width: 100px; height: 2px; border: 0; background-color: #222; margin-left: 0; opacity: 1\" >\r\n<p style=\"margin-top: 1em;\"><em>See Also: <\/em><strong><a href=\"\/days-to-come\/eastern-canada-vs-western-canada\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Eastern Canada Vs Western Canada<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\r\n<hr style=\"width: 100px; height: 2px; border: 0; background-color: #222; margin-left: 0; opacity: 1\" ><\/div>\n<h3>The Great Divide Trail<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"li1\"><b>Months of operation: <\/b>Accessible from late June to mid-September<\/li>\n<li class=\"li1\"><b><\/b><span class=\"s2\"><b>Time to complete the trail:<\/b> 8 weeks<br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<li><strong>Province:\u00a0<\/strong>Between British Columbia and Alberta<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Spanning the natural border between British Columbia and Alberta created by the Canadian Rockies, the Great Divide Trail promises the challenge of a lifetime for those daring enough to brave the unmarked routes. The entire length of the trail is approximately 700-miles long and requires approximately two months of hiking to complete. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You will need to be proficient in navigating your way across the unmarked terrain and possess advanced survival skills. Most importantly, you will need to coordinate the pre-mailing of supply packages to yourself at strategic spots along the route. This will be necessary for\u00a0securing necessary camping permits and to ensure your supplies won&#8217;t run out.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>During planning our road trip to Alberta we learned from countless photos and articles how beautiful the Canadian Rocky Mountains must be. They have been so right. Thick dark green forest with white topped trees, bizarre rock formations, shy droves of wapitis and a hungry black bear, we saw it all and couldn\u2019t wait to look around the nearest bend of the <a href=\"\/v\/national-park-icefields-parkway\">Icefields Parkway<\/a> to spot the next stunning photo scene.<\/p>\n<p>Time is the key. Even if Google Maps says it will only take about 3,5 hours by car from Banff to Jasper, you will take more time. Almost every part of the way will blow your mind, so overwhelmingly lovely. Start early in the morning and don\u2019t plan anything for the day just don\u2019t forget to stop at Peyto Lake, the Columbia Icefield and the Athabasca Falls. The landscape of the Canadian Rockies is worth every minute. &#8211; Karl and Daan, <a href=\"https:\/\/coupleofmen.com\">Couple of Men<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As you can see, Canada has some incredible hiking trails to explore on <\/span><a href=\"\/d\/canada#types=73\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">your next trip<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.
