EasyFor people looking to exercise their minds more than their bodies. There’s minimal walking and not too many stairs.
ModerateThese programs get you on your feet and include activities such as walking up to a mile in a day through a city and standing in a museum for a few hours.
ActiveFor people who enjoy walking as much as two miles a day, perhaps to explore historic neighborhoods or a nature trail.
Moderately ChallengingFor hardy explorers who enjoy a good physical challenge, spending most of their days on the go.
ChallengingGet ready to keep up with our highest-energy group. These demanding — and rewarding — programs are for seasoned outdoor enthusiasts.
Explore two jewels of the "Crown of the Continent" — Glacier National Park in Montana and Waterton Lakes National Park in Alberta. These magnificent parks combined in 1932 to create the world's first international peace park, bridging the United States and Canada with the beauty and serenity of the Rocky Mountains.


Highlights

• Immerse yourself in the history of Waterton Glacier International Peace Park through its historic lodges, amazing geological features, diverse flora and fauna, and observe grizzlies, mountain goats and moose in their natural habitat.
• Daily field trips provide in-person discovery of the natural forces that have made this area so magnificent.
• Journey along the famous Going-to-the-Sun Road and explore mammoth glaciers, vast valleys, thundering cascades and mountainous peaks.

Activity Notes

Walking up two miles during field trips; some stairs. Elevations of 7,000 feet.
