"Located by the Icefields Parkway in Jasper National Park, the luxe Glacier View Lodge has a front-row seat to the Athabasca Glacier, a 10,000-year-old giant that’s open to the public for walking tours. With two on-site restaurants, a majestic glacier-view lounge, and minimalist rooms, the lodge offers exclusive packages that include private glacier tours, bypassing the crowds. The resort is closed from early October to mid-April due to snowfall. Prices start at 404 Canadian dollars ($298) for a double room." - Zoe Baillargeon
