The word “Yoho” is a Cree expression of awe and wonder. And these are the exact sentiments that hiking in Yoho National Park leave you with.

The park is filled with emerald lakes, towering rock walls, and gorgeous waterfalls – a spectacular and special place for exploring the backcountry.

Starting in the town of Field, hiking up the Burgess Pass to Yoho Lake, across the Iceline, down the valley of the Little Yoho river, to Twin Falls, and out again was a perfect 3-day trek. Only problem is that now I want more!
