Icefields Parkway Maps

The best Icefields Parkway maps are produced by GEM TREK MAPS. Gem Trek is a local Canadian Rockies company that has been publishing high-quality, waterproof and tear-resistant Canadian Rockies maps for over 30 years.

Gem Trek publishes the Icefields Parkway Map (1:400,000), as well as the Columbia Icefield Map (1:75,000). Like all maps in the Gem Trek series, they are both waterproof and tear-resistant. They are created using computer-generated 3-D imagery to clearly define changes in elevation and GPS to plot hiking trails. The backs of the maps are filled with trail information as well as tidbits of history.
