10 DAYS TILL BOOKINGS OFFICIALLY LAUNCH. 

Tait’s Trails was built around the idea that exploring the mountains should feel intentional, well-paced, and genuinely enjoyable, not rushed, crowded, or overcomplicated. We offer thoughtfully guided hikes through Canada’s national parks, keeping group sizes small, moving at a pace that allows you to take it all in, and focusing on the experience as much as the destination.

From classic Bow Valley routes to quieter trails that offer a little more solitude, every hike is guided with care, respect for the landscape, and a strong emphasis on safety and preparedness. We handle the logistics so you can focus on the views, the fresh air, and the simple joy of being out there.

Guided with intention, respect for the land, and a focus on meaningful time in the mountains.

Lake Louise This Morning✨

Mornings like this at Lake Louise never get old. 🏔️

Cool mountain air, calm water, and the first light of the day hitting the peaks. Fall has officially arrived in the Rockies, and Lake Louise is putting on a pretty good show.

Come see it for yourself with Tait’s Trails. 🥾🍂 taken in Lake Louise, Alberta by @taitstrails

If only every Monday morning could look like this 🍂

Caught Larch Valley in its tiny window of golden needles and fresh snow this week thanks to @taitstrails . One of those mornings where waking up at 4am doesn’t seem like such a terrible idea. 

There’s nothing quite like autumn in the Rockies 🤎

There’s fall… and then there’s larch season in the Rockies. 🍂🏔️

Arnica Lake absolutely shows off this time of year. Golden larches, crisp mountain air, turquoise water and a trail that somehow gets better around every corner.

The larches don’t stay golden for long, which is part of what makes this little window in the Rockies so special.

If seeing the mountains turn gold is on your fall bucket list, this is your sign.

We’ve watched the sun come up over Moraine Lake a lot this season… and somehow, it never looks the same twice. 🌅🏔️

Clear skies, moody clouds, alpenglow, glassy water and mornings where the Ten Peaks slowly appear out of the darkness.

There’s something pretty special about being here before the day really begins.

A little look back at some of our favourite Moraine Lake mornings this season. 💙

There’s sunrise… and then there’s alpenglow at Moraine Lake. 🏔️🌅

Those first few minutes of morning when the peaks of the Valley of the Ten Peaks catch the light and start glowing pink and gold, it’s one of those Rocky Mountain moments that photos never quite do justice.

Early alarm? Very early.
Worth it? Every single time.

Come experience Moraine Lake before the rest of the world wakes up with Tait’s Trails.

💛 Larch season is almost here! 💛

For a few short weeks each fall, the Rockies put on one of their best shows as the larches turn from green to brilliant gold. It’s beautiful, it’s fleeting, and it’s absolutely worth getting out on the trail for.

Whether you’re looking to explore Larch Valley, find a quieter golden-larch trail, or just want someone else to handle the planning while you enjoy the views — we’ve got you covered.

🥾 Guided larch hikes
🏔️ Local knowledge
📸 Plenty of photo stops
🍂 Some seriously good fall scenery

Larch season doesn’t last long, so message Tait’s Trails to plan your larch adventure!

Come for the golden trees. Stay because your camera roll now has 400 nearly identical mountain photos. We get it. taken in Larch Valley, Banff National Park by @taitstrails

That first touch of morning light ✨

Golden sun catching the treetops, Moraine Lake peeking through below, and the mountains slowly waking up around us.

Wildlife doesn’t exactly work around our schedule… but we know a few of their favourite hangouts 🐻🫎

Join us for an evening wildlife tour through the Bow Valley as we head to areas where elk, bears, bighorn sheep, deer and other local wildlife are known to frequent.

Of course, these guys are wild, so there are never any guarantees on what we’ll see. But we know where to look, when to look, and we’ll do our best to give you the best chance of spotting some of the locals.

Even if the wildlife decides to ghost us, an evening exploring the Rockies is never a bad way to spend a few hours. 🏔️

Alpine glow on Moraine Lake 🌄

There’s a small window in the morning when the peaks light up, the lake is still, and everything just looks a little unreal.

Worth the early alarm? We think so.

Sunrise mornings at Moraine never really get old.
