"One of the best hikes on the Icefields Parkway is the HIKE TO WILCOX VIEWPOINT VIA WILCOX PASS TRAIL.
As you hike through pretty alpine meadows, you’ll have incredible panoramic views of glacier-covered peaks in the Columbia Icefield. Once you reach Wilcox Viewpoint you’ll be directly across from the Athabasca Glacier.
If you don’t want to hike all the way to the main viewpoint, there’s a set of Parks Canada’s iconic red chairs less than 2 km up the trail where you also get a nice view of Athabasca Glacier."
