The Ultimate Guide to Yoho National Park
Yoho National Park in the Canadian Rockies is another place you must include in your itinerary. Famous for hiking trails, immense beauty, waterfalls, and wildlife, Yoho, located in British Columbia, is awaiting to be discovered. Our Yoho National Park travel guide includes the best things to do, top hikes, practical information on how to get, when to go, where to stay, and what to pack.
For several decades, the number of visitors to the Canadian Rockies has been steadily increasing, even in lesser-known parts, like Yoho National Park.
But even after all those years, Yoho's popularity still cannot be compared with the stars such as Banff National Park or Jasper National Park. It is a mystery for us, but the aura of these two parks linked by the iconic Icefields Parkway kept all other destinations away from the main focus, despite their beauty.
But it is enough only to look a bit west of the traditional path that connects the city of Calgary and mountainous towns Banff, Lake Louise, and Jasper, and you'll find an entirely new world, not less stunning, but definitely wilder.
Yes, you must cross the imaginary border from Alberta to British Columbia, but only a short drive will take you to the smallest national park in the Canadian Rockies, which on a pretty small area offers an insane number of top attractions and the best things to do.
Yoho National Park is famous for the mountainous scenery, the number of hiking trails that please every adventure traveler, one of the highest waterfalls in Canada, and of course, the enumeration would not be complete without mentioning beautiful lakes that only raise the attractiveness to the new level.
Yoho National Park was acknowledged for its beauty long before modern travelers arrived. Not only was it established already in 1886, but the word 'yoho' in the Cree language means awe and wonder, and to that, is, in our opinion, not much to add.
We've created this blog post to inspire you to visit Yoho National Park, include this place to your itinerary, and show you some of the top spots you should not miss.
No matter if you have only one day for the trip or you decide to base yourself in Field and explore the area more thoroughly, we've got you covered.
This Yoho National Park travel guide includes top things to do that should persuade you to visit this region in the first place, and we've also included practical tips that make the planning process easier.
WHERE IS YOHO NATIONAL PARK
Yoho National Park is easily accessible, which should only increase your interest in visiting this place. The park neighbors with Banff National Park and Kootenay National Park and is served by Trans-Canada Highway.
Golden is the traditional gateway to Yoho National Park, especially when arriving from the west (Kamloops and Vancouver direction).
The typical overnight stop for multi-day visitors inside the park is Field, a small town that does not feel that touristy as other spots along the well-trodden path.
Of course, because of the short distance, it is possible to arrive at Yoho National Park from Banff, Lake Louise, or any other town in the vicinity, enjoy here one day, and return back, without sleeping in the park at all.
Lake Louise is only 30 kilometers from Field, Banff around one hour, and even Calgary is 2 hours and 30 minutes away, which makes it an interesting alternative for travelers looking for day trips. This actually brings us to another topic.
HOW MANY DAYS YOU NEED
We assume your Canadian Rockies itinerary is packed to the brim, and therefore, it is essential to divide your time wisely. The good news is that the top attractions in Yoho National Park can be visited in one day. One long day, though.
That, of course, means that we are talking about a road trip and several stops, not about serious hiking.
If you've been wondering whether it is worth it to travel to Yoho National Park with a limited time, the answer is still yes. Of course, the longer you have, the more trails you can hit.
There are several hiking treks (and biking trails) ranging from short walks to multi-day adventures, and if a more challenging hike caught your eyes, plan accordingly.
As we managed to reserve Lake O'Hara campsite and bus, we spent in the area three days, and based on this experience, we recommend you to do the same.
In general, if you are not an enthusiast hiker, one day will provide you with an adequate experience, and we believe you'll be thrilled. Two to three days is, in our opinion, ideal. If you have longer, that's even better.
ENTRANCE FEE
Visiting national parks in Canada is not free, but for a reasonable fee, you'll get a lot in return. One-day entrance fee to Yoho National Park costs CAD 9.80, but we think it makes more sense to buy an annual pass.
Not only it gives you more time for exploring Yoho itself, but you'll also get access to other national parks in the Rockies and Canada overall.
The annual pass for one person costs CAD 69.19, but if you travel as a group of people or with your family, consider an annual group pass for CAD 139.40 that can be used for up to 7 people traveling in one vehicle.
BEST THINGS TO SEE AND DO IN YOHO NATIONAL PARK
There are many reasons to visit Yoho National Park, and fortunately, there are many ways to plan your trip, so you certainly don't have to follow the same path as others unless you wish to.
Of course, there are top natural attractions that every traveler road tripping the area should not miss, but you can also customize the journey according to your preferences.
We spent in area three full days where we combined sightseeing of must-visit places with hiking and camping in the Lake O'Hara destination, which is a bit exclusive as it is not accessible to all traveler who made it to Yoho, only to those who made the booking well in advance and the number of visitors is strictly limited.
Here's a list of the best things to see and do in Yoho National Park. Feel free to get inspired.
SPIRAL TUNNELS LOOKOUT
One of the best-accessible attractions in Yoho National Park is Spiral Tunnels Lookout. The viewpoint is just off Trans-Canada Highway, so even if you do not have that much time or just passing by, you can stop by here, take a few photos and wait if the train emerges from the mountain.
There are two viewpoints, the one on Trans-Canada Highway is called Lower Spiral Tunnel Scenic Viewpoint alias Kicking Horse Pass National Historic Site (where you can read a lot about history) and is accessible all-year-round.
If you want to see the tunnel from a different angle, carry on to Upper Spiral Tunnel Scenic Viewpoint that lies on Yoho Valley Road that is opened only from June to October.
And what can you expect to see?
Well, first, we must look a little back in the past. Building a railway at the end of the 19th century, especially across the Canadian Rockies, was pretty challenging, but Kicking Horse Pass was chosen for the railway, although a grade of 4.5% was quite dangerous.
It was clear that trains for the safe descend need much gentle grade, and that's why a new solution, Spiral Tunnels, came into use, although it took 25 years.
Nowadays, when lucky, you can spot cargo trains snaking through the Spiral Tunnels, which is quite an interesting sight.
It is hard to plan the visit as trains do not run on a regular schedule, but there are around 25 trains a day, and when we visited Yoho National Park in the afternoon, we were always able to see one, so it is worth it to wait a bit.
TAKAKKAW FALLS
When you turn from Trans-Canada Highway onto Yoho Valley Road, after approximately 17 kilometers, you'll arrive at the parking lot to Takakkaw Falls.
This is also where the road ends, so to continue exploring the park, you need to either return or lace up your hiking shoes and carry on on foot. Takakkaw Falls is another attraction you cannot miss when in Yoho.
First of all, the walk from the parking lot to the falls is undemanding; secondly, for not much effort, you'll get a view of one of the highest waterfalls in Canada.
The overall height is a whopping 384 meters, and the waterfall has two drops; the lower drop is 254 meters high, and it plunges into the pool beneath, which causes an unsurprising natural phenomenon, which means you should be dressed in waterproof clothes and protect your electronics as well.
As we've already mentioned, the well-trodden path is easy to follow, only 1.3 kilometers long. Takakkaw Falls is also very popular among climbers, but for that, you must be well-experienced, have the necessary specialized gear, and, more importantly, a guide.
The waterfall is at its best in June when all the snow in the mountains melts, but we visited the site in September, and it was impressive as well.
Winter, when the waterfall freezes, is also an interesting choice, but you must know the road to Takakkaw Falls is accessible only seasonally, between roughly June and October, so outside this period, you can cross-country ski, but be aware of avalanche risk.
If you want to enjoy the sense of wilderness and see the waterfall once all day visitors leave, consider staying at Takakkaw Falls campground that works on a first-come, first-served basis.
A few hiking trails also start here, in case you're looking for an authentic backcountry experience.
NATURAL BRIDGE
Only a short drive from Field on Emerald Lake Road is located a very rewarding sight called Natural Bridge.
This beautiful place that shows us the force of nature in a very raw way is mainly about the rock formation that looks like a bridge that is cracked in the middle, and through the bridge flows the insanely blue Kicking Horse River.
There are several viewpoints, so take your time to contemplate how water in the mountains actually shapes the landscape and how powerful this element is.
Natural Bridge is super photogenic, and if you decide to visit this place in the winter, you can even walk on the ice and go into a small ice cavern, but we cannot emphasize enough that you must be really careful.
EMERALD LAKE
Every destination, every national park has its signature site promoted in marketing materials and famous on social media. In Yoho National Park, it is the Emerald Lake.
Renowned for its emerald color and reflections of surrounding peaks of President Range, Emerald Lake is one of the most photogenic lakes in the Rockies.
Hence, no wonder you simply have to include it in your itinerary. This water surface is the largest in Yoho National Park, but it is certainly not that big as Moraine Lake or Lake Louise, the two most beautiful lakes in Banff National Park.
Emerald Lake is easily accessible by car, and unlike other driveways, in the region, Emerald Lake Road is opened all-year-round, so you can plan your visit without many restrictions in mind (of course, when there's a lot of snow, you must wait for the road to be cleared).
Wondering what to do in Emerald Lake?
Of course, the most popular activity is just to relax on the shore and photograph the scenery around.
Later, we walked Emerald Lake Trail, which is a 5.2 kilometers long narrow path encircling the lake that allowed us to enjoy the beauty from every angle possible.
Of course, we cannot fail to mention kayaking and canoeing, another signature activity to do on almost every lake in the Rockies.
Canoe rental costs CAD 70 per one hour, so it is a quite costly activity, and if you plan kayaking in other places, then consider buying an inflatable kayak to save money and be more independent.
We believe there are better activities to spend money on, but this is highly individual, and every traveler has a different Canadian Rockies budget.
BURGESS SHALE FOSSILS
Except for otherworldly scenery, Yoho National Park is also one of the most important fossil areas in the world, which is from 1984 designated as a World Heritage Site.
In 1909, significant fossil beds were found on the slopes of Mt Burgess towering above Emerald Lake. More than 120 fossilized marine species were found here, proving that the area's ecosystem was completely different from today.
Well, it is probably not that surprising when you put these words in context because some of the fossils are more than 500 million years old, and as we know, a lot has changed on the planet during such a long period.
Burgess Shale Fossils are accessible only on a guided walk; check out the availability and schedules in the park's Visitors Center, although it is better to make a reservation in advance.
Please note the hikes are quite demanding, and take the whole day.
If you are interested in fossils and want to learn more about the connection with Yoho National Park, read this book, Wonderful Life: The Burgess Shale and the Nature of History by Stephen Jay Gould.
Actually, if you travel in Calgary's direction, it is worth making a short, only 90 minutes (from Calgary) detour to Drumheller, a city that is home to one of the largest and best dinosaur museums in the world.
Royal Tyrrell Museum of Paleontology is fascinating (even if you are not a paleontology enthusiast), and by the way, one of the exhibits shows 505 million years old models of creatures from the Burgess Shale.
LAKE O'HARA
We are about to introduce you to our personal favorite place to visit in Yoho National Park, the Lake O'Hara area. This exquisite lake's setting surrounded by mountains and forest could be by description confused with any other lake in the Rockies, but do not get fooled.
The alpine environment is so fragile, and the lake's surroundings so special that it's been protected even more than other top places in Canadian Rockies' national parks, which means one thing.
The access is limited to a small number of visitors daily, and the reservation is hard to get.
The fact that Lake O'Hara is not close to any other parking lot (the nearest one is 11 kilometers away) means that travelers interested in this hiking experience must book an either bus or a combination of campground and bus transport. Do not be discouraged by the obstacles, and try to make the reservation for this sought-after hiking destination.
Some things has changed from the time we visited Lake O'Hara, when the system basically worked on a first-come, first-served basis, which meant people who were able to make the reservation fast were allowed to enter the area.
Nowadays, the rules are slightly different, and you must enter your application in a lottery for selected dates and wait.
This is not the most convenient system for international travelers who want to build the perfect Canadian Rockies itinerary well in advance, but it is how it is, and we think you should try your luck.
As one day in the Lake O'Hara area seems a bit rushed, try to book an overnight stay, which is also a great introduction to backcountry camping in Yoho National Park.
What is the best feature of Lake O'Hara? First of all, deserted trails that will take you to some of the best viewpoints in the park.
For starters, we recommend following Lake O'Hara Alpine Circuit that covers some of the top attractions in the surroundings. This activity certainly requires a bit of planning, so feel free to read our updated Lake O'Hara complete guide.
WAPTA FALLS
If you are looking for a fairly easy trail with minimal elevation gain, then Wapta Falls Hike it is.
When discovering Yoho National Park, it could easily happen that the high Takakkaw Falls overshadow all other cascades, and a first-time visitor could get an assumption there's no other worthwhile waterfall in the area.
Well, this assumption could not be further from the truth. Wapta Falls is the biggest waterfall on the Kicking Horse River. It is certainly not very high in comparison with other single-drop waterfalls in the region, but it is very powerful and wide while overcoming a 30 meters rock drop.
The road to Wapta Falls parking lot is not very well-signposted, which is the reason why many travelers miss the turn-off, and Wapta Falls is visited only by people intentionally looking for it.
Wapta Falls is 4.6 kilometers out and back trail, and despite its undemanding profile, you should not underestimate the gear as the path is often muddy.
HIKING
By now, it must be clear that Yoho National Park is a perfect hiking destination, and we are not able to talk here about all the hikes, mainly because we could make only a fraction of them during our visit, which we hope will change in the future.
At the moment, eight designated short trails range from 1.6 to 6.4 kilometers, then there are eighteen one-day hikes, including Iceline Trail, that we want so desperately see one day.
And of course, there are also multi-day hikes that you can plan according to your skills and level of fitness, with campsites along the trail.
Before you set off, the only mandatory thing is to check out trail conditions on Parks Canada's official website because the winter in the Rockies is harsh, and some trails can be accessible in the late summer.
Despite the fact that Yoho National Park is not large, it is a huge playground for all outdoor lovers, and we cannot forget to mention bikers because some of the trails are accessible by cyclists.
RAFTING
If you want to spice up your travels a bit or have a feeling there's been enough hiking; then the Kicking Horse River awaits you with arms wide open.
This river is an important water source for the national park, but grades 1 to 4 are also here for adventure travelers who want to have some fun and see the Rockies from a different perspective.
Obviously, it is always better to book a reliable tour operator that delivers the exact amount of adrenaline and ensures your safety.
Check out this Whitewater Rafting Tour that has excellent reviews.
WINTER ACTIVITIES
It is obvious that there are so many things to do in Yoho National Park in the summer, but what about winter?
We've already outlined that some of the roads can be closed in the winter (for example, the one that leads to Takakkaw Falls), but that does not mean there are not still a few activities left.
Sure, Emerald Lake is hidden under the snow for the majority of winter months; hence, you can't see the emerald color, but we would not see it as a disadvantage.
Instead, you can walk across the lake, make a few hikes (but you should definitely have either snowshoes or microspikes on), or try cross-country skiing.
The atmosphere in the mountains in winter is completely different, and we believe you'll enjoy it as well, just exercise caution and always make sure you have a warm accommodation booked to relax after.
Yoho National Park is certainly not such a famous winter destination like Lake Louise that is known for the ski resort, but it is perfect for travelers preferring off the beaten path or families with kids who love to stay away from party travelers.
WILDLIFE
Except for admiring nature, Yoho National Park is also known among wildlife watchers because of the abundance of animals that are not that hard to spot.
Spring and summer are great for wildlife watching as you can see mums with cubs and later animals feeding on berries.
Yoho has an abundance of bears, moose, marmots, or mountain goats. We cannot emphasize enough that you should always keep your distance, and it might be worth investing in binoculars.
HOW TO GET TO YOHO NATIONAL PARK
We've already mentioned that Yoho National Park is well-accessible, but this statement is true only when you have a car at your disposal. At the moment, there's no public transport to the park, so your options are basically to have a rental car or book a tour.
This is even more important when you realize that only a few attractions are located on Trans-Canada Highway, but to see the best places, you need to get off the main road, and this definitely requires an own transport.
So how do you get to Yoho?
BY CAR
Getting around Canadian Rockies by rental car or campervan (or your car if you're a local) is the most common transportation option, and you'll appreciate it even more at destinations such as Yoho National Park.
Even to get to two must-visit places, such as Emerald Lake or Takakkaw Falls, requires having a car as there is no bus connection.
We know that the initial price for renting a car is seemingly high, but even if you travel on a budget, you should consider this alternative as it gives you so much freedom and opens horizons.
PUBLIC TRANSPORT
There's really no bus line that connects Yoho National Park with other tourist destinations, and not even Field is a stop on bus companies' itineraries.
Your only option is to buy a bus ticket from Calgary or Edmonton to either Banff and Lake Louise; these towns are serviced, and from here, either take a tour or hire a taxi. It is not the cheapest alternative, and it requires booking two services, but if you do not drive, it is a possibility how not to miss out on Yoho National Park.
There's one more public transport option, but we haven't tried it ourselves. Rider Express has a line to Golden past Fields, and you can try to contact them whether the driver will stop in Field on your request.
This alternative still does not solve the problem of getting to top attractions and trailheads, although a taxi from here will definitely be cheaper.
TOUR
Taking a tour certainly makes sense if you have only one day to spare and do not have a different option to see the best from this national park.
It is also perfect for travelers who want to enjoy a day in nature without the necessity to arrange stuff; this company will arrange everything on your behalf.
This one-day Yoho and Banff National Park Tour departing from Banff combines top attractions from Banff and Yoho National Park, including Takakkaw Falls and Emerald Lakes. Check it out; it has excellent reviews.
BEST TIME TO VISIT YOHO NATIONAL PARK
No matter when you plan on visiting Yoho National Park, we're sure your trip will be amazing. Of course, same as in other destinations in the Canadian Rockies, the top season is summer from June to September, but there are still plenty of things to do even in the spring, autumn, and winter.
SUMMER
Summer is defined by longer days, higher temperatures, and although the weather in the mountains changes often, your chances to enjoy cloudless days are high.
The best season, of course, attracts crowds, and rates are higher, but we did not find Yoho National Park unpleasantly crowded, compared to spots such as Moraine Lake or Lake Louise.
WINTER
When winter arrives, which can be as soon as in October, the trails are usually covered by snow, and hiking trails turn into cross-country skiing trails or paths suitable for snowshoeing. The mountains can be shrouded in clouds, but blue skies in the winter are not uncommon.
Moreover, the insanely blue water is hidden under the ice, but that does not mean it loses the appeal; it is just different.
Winter is certainly a more challenging time for visiting Yoho National Park in terms of preparation for outdoor activities; it often requires having backcountry skills, but when you opt for this period, you can expect a tranquil experience that is pretty unique.
AUTUMN
Autumn is a perfect time for road tripping the Rockies, and although this period is very short, you can enjoy free hiking trails and beautifully colored trees.
SPRING
Spring in the mountains usually starts late, and you should be prepared for rather a winter condition between March and mid-May, but brave visitors can see nature waking up from below zero temperatures, and it is also a perfect time for wildlife watching. Trails can be wet and muddy.
Later, the snow starts to melt, so the end of May and the beginning of June are perfect months to see waterfalls in full force.
WHAT TO PACK
Packing for Yoho National Park should not be any different than for the rest of the Canadian Rockies. After all, you can read our Canadian Rockies packing list.
In short, we believe you prefer spending time actively, and your clothing should reflect that. Unless you want to enjoy the beauty through the car's window, you should have durable outdoor clothes.
Hiking boots, a down jacket, rain jacket, and hiking pants are must-have things.
The same goes for a quality daypack and sun protection products such as sunscreen with high SPF and lip balm.
Trekking poles are optional, but it is a great gear if you plan on hiking.
If you'll follow our footsteps and decide on camping, bring a tent, sleeping bag, silk liner, and inflatable mattress, same as cooking gear.
Tap water in Canada is drinkable, so in order to reduce plastic footprint, pack a reusable water bottle or a water bottle with a filter; this way, it is possible to drink water from streams safely.
Because of your safety, Yoho National Park is a place where you should not forget bear spray in the car.
We know how tempting it is to see animals up close, but keep your distance and rather invest in binoculars.
This brings us to photo gear. A reliable travel camera with a telephoto lens should also be in your backpack.
SAFETY
Yoho National Park is a safe destination when it comes to traveling, but as at any other place, you should not walk around light-headedly.
As you will very likely arrive by car, it should come without saying that car is not the safest place to keep your things, and all your valuables should better be in your hotel room or at least out of sight, to prevent opportunistic crimes.
This national park is all about nature; that's why it is essential to keep in mind that you should not underestimate the ever-changing weather and animals who call Yoho National Park home.
Wear outdoor clothes and always keep extra layers in your backpack just in case.
The conditions in the winter are more challenging, so except for having backcountry experience, you should not risk, always stay on designated trails, and inform someone about your plans. It is also necessary to read up-to-date information, especially about avalanche hazards and opened or closed trails.
Last but not least, Yoho is a bit wilder area than the rest of the Rockies' well-known destinations, which means that spotting wildlife is quite common, especially in the berry season that coincides with summer.
This means that you should always pay attention and carry a bear spray, especially when hiking away from crowds because bear sighting is not unusual, we could even read a story about a bear chasing tourists around Emerald Lake.
To prepare yourself for a bear encounter, read our post on how to stay safe in a bear country. We hope you won't need this advice, but it is always better to be prepared for all possibilities.

WHERE TO STAY
The truth to be told, Yoho National Park does not offer that many lodging options, and therefore, the capacity is quite limited, especially in the summer season.
That means you can even stay in Field, but it is possible to spend the night in Golden, Lake Louise, or even Banff and visit the park on a day trip or travel every day back and forth.
The Canadian Rockies is a super-popular destination, so you should always plan ahead and make the reservation in advance, especially if you plan on staying in demanded areas.
We've handpicked the best hotels in selected areas where you can stay before or after visiting Yoho National Park.
Field | Cathedral Mountain Lodge - This cozy lodge is located outside Field in the Kicking Horse Valley on the Yoho Valley road. Lovely cabins are well decorated, have a proper fireplace, and offer views of the surrounding mountains. The restaurant serves regional cuisine using organic and free-range ingredients.
Emerald Lake | Emerald Lake Lodge - Superb location, views, cabins with a fireplace, it's all there. If you are looking for more unique and upscale accommodation, check out Emerald Lake Lodge that is situated on the shore of this eponymous lake.
Golden | Best Western Mountainview Inn - Best Western is always a solid choice when it comes to accommodation. The rooms are clean and air-conditioned, plus a complimentary breakfast is included in the price. Golden is an off-the-beaten-path destination on the way to Glacier National Park.
Lake Louise | Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise - This large 4* resort offers panoramic views over Lake Louise, and if you want to experience something unique, make sure you reserve at least one night here. The resort offers a large number of services, for instance, eight restaurants, so we are sure the time here will be well spent.
Banff | Banff Inn - Perfectly located hotel is a great place to stay both in the summer and winter. Except for modern rooms, guests can enjoy a hot tub, steam room, sauna, and useful facilities such as luggage storage and ski storage.
Canmore | Canmore Inn and Suites - For the price, this hotel is one of the best options in Canmore. Clean rooms, perfect location in the heart of Canmore, hot tub, and gym, are in short the main leading magnets here.
Calgary | Aloft Calgary University - A modern and clean hotel close to Calgary's university is the right place for you if you like design hotels with excellent service.
CAMPGROUNDS
Hotels and hostels are not your only options when looking for accommodation in Yoho National Park. Moreover, camping in the Canadian Rockies is a great way to save money for accommodation.
There are several campgrounds spread across the area, which is great for budget travelers and travelers getting around by campervans.
In the beginning, it is necessary to say that both backcountry and frontcountry campsites in the park are usually opened from the beginning of May till mid-October (every campsite has a slightly different opening period), so you can consider this option only in the summer season, which is quite understandable because of the rough weather.
Frontcountry campsites such as Monarch, Takakkaw Falls, and Hoodoo Creek are unserviced and work on a first-come, first-served basis.
The most popular campsite in the park is Kicking Horse (this is where we slept), and this one is reservable from June 17 to September 12.
We recommend making a reservation for the summer months and long weekends as soon as possible. Price range between CAD 16-28.
Backcountry campsites service hiking trails and are not accessible by cars. There are six of them in Yoho National Park, and advanced reservation is required as tramping in Canada is popular.
Except for making a reservation, you also need to purchase a Wilderness Pass.
