A stunning example of nature’s power and creativity, the Natural Bridge in Yoho National Park is a must-see geological marvel.

Lower Spiral Tunnel Viewpoint

If timing is right, visitors may even see a train enter one tunnel and reappear from another—sometimes with the front and end visible at the same time!Your guide will share the remarkable history behind the tunnels’ construction, including the challenges faced by early railway workers and the role this route played in connecting Canada from coast to coast.
