The Romance of Canadian Rail Travel
Canada’s vast landscapes are perfect for train travel. Passengers watch some of the world’s most spectacular scenery unfold before them. The iconic Rocky Mountaineer winds through the Canadian Rockies, while VIA Rail’s Canadian route crosses the entire country from Toronto to Vancouver. Train journeys here transform transportation into an experience worth savoring. Endless forests give way to prairie skies. Remote lakes appear, accessible only by track. The trains climb mountain passes where steel and stone defy gravity. The journey matters as much as the destination. Dome cars provide panoramic views where travelers share stories over meals. You can cross the country over several days or take a shorter scenic route through the Rockies or along the coasts. Train travel in Canada offers a slower, more contemplative way to appreciate the nation’s scale and beauty.
