To take time. 9 km behind the Icefieldcentre is the Saskatchewan from the eponymous Icefield. Short but crisp track up.

Parker Ridge Trail: is a beautiful 2.5-hour hiking trail with 260 meters of altitude and great views, which can be easily installed on the way between Lake Louise and Jasper. The way is a bit muddy, but to walk well and with normal condition easily feasible. Sturdy footwear is required - no jogging shoes! The trail starts right down the parking lot at the Icefield Parkway. At the top of the summit you will be rewarded with a beautiful view of the surrounding mountains and the Sakatchewan Glacier. One of the absolute highlights on the route between Lake Louise and Jasper.
