Rocky Mountaineer

Discover the world's wonders by train.

The elegance of rail travel is matched only by the beauty of the Rocky Mountains and yet both complement one another as effortlessly as you'd expect. Unparalleled luxury transports passengers back to a golden age of rail travel; a time when the joy of the journey was as important as the final destination.

Your soul will be stirred, much like your cocktail, as you marvel at mountain passes and sheer rock faces through the glass-dome windows. Complimented by gourmet cuisine, vibrant storytelling and impeccable service, a Rocky Mountaineer journey is truly above and beyond the extraordinary.

SilverLeaf Service is available on every journey.
GoldLeaf Service is available on Canadian routes only.
SilverLeaf Plus is only available on Rockies to the Red Rocks and provides an elevated dining experience and lounge car.

ROCKY MOUNTAINEER OFFERS FOUR DISTINCT RAIL ROUTES


 

You now have the unenviable task of choosing between wonderful, fabulous, amazing, and fantastic.

 

First Passage to the West

Travelling between the coast and Banff or Lake Louise, you’ll witness mountains and wilderness, much of it seemingly unchanged since the days of the first explorers.

 

Rockies to the Red Rocks

This route, the only one in America, includes canyons, deserts, and archways of the Southwest. You’ll cross the Continental Divide and journey through the Moffat Tunnel too. 

 

Journey to the Clouds

This route takes you through the heart of the Canadian Rockies, with all of nature’s raw beauty on fully display. Highlights include Mount Robson and the postcard-perfect Pyramid Falls.

 

Rainforest to Goldrush

Going from one extreme to the another, this route traverses the world’s largest temperate rainforest, linking it to the arid ranchlands of the historic Cariboo Gold Rush region. 

IT'S ALWAYS A GOOD TIME TO GO


 

Anytime is the perfect time to travel onboard Rocky Mountaineer, as all seasons they operate in are beautiful.

 

AUTUMN (SEPTEMBER-OCTOBER)
 

The forests create a vibrant display of red, orange, and gold, mixed with evergreen. Snow frosts the mountain peaks. The animals forage through the wilderness to prepare for the coming winter.

 

SPRING (APRIL-MAY)

Lakes, streams, and waterfalls swell with the melting remnants of winter and snow-capped mountain peaks. Bears lumber out of hibernation. Flowers blossom. The wilderness comes alive and it’s yours to savour.

 

SUMMER (JUNE-AUGUST)
 

Warm weather urges vegetation to flourish. Newborn animals emerge under their parent’s watchful eyes. The rainforest is at its most lush and the arid desert canyons have an especially rugged beauty.
