My Canada Calm

Where I found..... my Canada Calm

Greg Mangos, Travel Utopia

I found my Canada Calm in the Eastern Townships of Québec, as I stood on the shores of Lac Massawippi, which was framed by autumn foliage and gentle rolling hills. This destination is quintessential French-Canada at its best! The picturesque chocolatiers, wineries and lavender farms, and the welcoming Francophones with their delicious accents, made it a very hard place to leave!

One of my favourite Canada Calm moments came on a November morning during a guided hike in Banff National Park. This turned into a snowshoe adventure, complete with maple taffy made in the fresh snow. At the Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise we walked around the iconic lake. It was mostly unfrozen but surrounded by freshly fallen white snow and very few people – an experience I’ll never forget.

I found my Canada Calm dog sledding with the finest husky dogs in the Yukon. These handsome canines barked with excitement as they were harnessed in front of our sled. Sliding down snowy trails and winding through the woods, as we brushed past snow-laden trees while those huskies sprinted on ahead, was incredibly exhilarating. They were happy, happy doggies!

I found my Canada Calm on the floor of Maligne Canyon, the deepest canyon in Jasper National Park, Alberta, with a depth of more than 50 metres at certain points. Being surrounded by frozen waterfalls, snow-covered trees, ice caves and incredible ice formations left me speechless. It made me realise how happy I feel when surrounded by pure nature – a truly memorable experience to last a lifetime.
