Split the Skyline Trail into two days. On day one hike 21 km from the Maligne trailhead and on day two, tackle the 25 km over The Notch to the Signal trailhead. Some people opt for another <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.shovelpasslodge.com\/suggested-itineraries\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.shovelpasslodge.com\/suggested-itineraries\">night or two at the lodge<\/a><\/strong>, so they can explore more of the area like Curator Lake, Watchtower Ridge and Basin, or Amber Mountain at a relaxed pace.

We had parked cars at the Signal trailhead off Maligne Road and caught a one-way<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/maligneadventures.com\/activity-categories\/shuttles\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/maligneadventures.com\/activity-categories\/shuttles\"> shuttle with Maligne Adventures<\/a><\/strong>. About 45 minutes later, we were dropped off at the southern trailhead for the Skyline Trail. <\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We did the hike the first week of August and enjoyed fantastic sunny but not-too-hot weather and excellent trail conditions \u2013 with just the odd muddy spot around. <\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the morning we made good time with quick stops at Lorraine and Mona Lake before reaching the Evelyn Creek Campground at ~4.8 km. The hiking got more interesting with better views and more wildflowers once we passed Little Shovel Campground at 8.3 km. Our lunch break at Little Shovel Pass, 10.1 km from the trailhead turned out to be a fortuitous stop. It\u2019s here I saw my <strong>first wolverine in the wild<\/strong> up on a patch of snow. It took the three of us some time to decide if it was actually a wolverine and not a marmot \u2013 but its behaviour, profile and fuzzy pictures confirmed it was indeed a wolverine.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After lunch the hiking got more interesting with huge wildflower-filled alpine meadows \u2013 and grand views. We passed Snowbowl Campground as helicopters were replacing full \u2018honey buckets\u2019 of human waste with empty ones. The flies were nasty through here.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Next up was Big Shovel Pass followed by a long easy ascent and descent to reach the intersection of The Watchtower and then The Notch. From there it\u2019s a 1.1 km descent to reach Shovel Pass Lodge.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"623\" alt=\"Hiking towards the intersection of The Notch and the turnoff to Shovel Pass Lodge\" class=\"wp-image-150478\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hikebiketravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/Hiking-towards-the-intersection-of-the-Notch-and-the-turnoff-to-Curator-Camground-and-Shovel-Pass-Lodge-1024x623.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/hikebiketravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/Hiking-towards-the-intersection-of-the-Notch-and-the-turnoff-to-Curator-Camground-and-Shovel-Pass-Lodge-770x468.jpg 770w, https:\/\/hikebiketravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/Hiking-towards-the-intersection-of-the-Notch-and-the-turnoff-to-Curator-Camground-and-Shovel-Pass-Lodge.jpg 1200w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"https:\/\/hikebiketravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/Hiking-towards-the-intersection-of-the-Notch-and-the-turnoff-to-Curator-Camground-and-Shovel-Pass-Lodge-1024x623.jpg\"\/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"623\" src=\"https:\/\/hikebiketravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/Hiking-towards-the-intersection-of-the-Notch-and-the-turnoff-to-Curator-Camground-and-Shovel-Pass-Lodge-1024x623.jpg\" alt=\"Hiking towards the intersection of The Notch and the turnoff to Shovel Pass Lodge\" class=\"wp-image-150478\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hikebiketravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/Hiking-towards-the-intersection-of-the-Notch-and-the-turnoff-to-Curator-Camground-and-Shovel-Pass-Lodge-1024x623.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/hikebiketravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/Hiking-towards-the-intersection-of-the-Notch-and-the-turnoff-to-Curator-Camground-and-Shovel-Pass-Lodge-770x468.jpg 770w, https:\/\/hikebiketravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/Hiking-towards-the-intersection-of-the-Notch-and-the-turnoff-to-Curator-Camground-and-Shovel-Pass-Lodge.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">A splendid bit of hiking to the intersection of The Notch and Shovel Pass Lodge<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2 id=\"h-hiking-from-shovel-pass-lodge-to-the-end-of-the-skyline-trail\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Hiking from Shovel Pass Lodge to the End of the Skyline Trail<\/h2>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Distance:<\/strong> ~25 km<\/li>\n<li><strong>Elevation gain\/loss:<\/strong> +440 m to The Notch, -430 m to Tekarra Campground and -900m to Signal parking lot on Maligne Road<\/li>\n<li><strong>Time needed: <\/strong>7 \u2013 10 hours<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The morning starts off with a stiff climb back up to the intersection with the trail to The Notch \u2013 and then onwards steeply at times towards the crux of the hike \u2013 The Notch itself at the pass. The difficult part doesn\u2019t last for long. It\u2019s mainly loose footing on scree, but if you take your time with foot placement you\u2019re literally through it in five minutes.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On bad weather days, you\u2019ll need to make a choice if thunderstorms or snowstorms (which can happen at any time in the summer) are in the forecast. The 3 km of trail above The Notch are no place to be in either type of storm. Backtrack if need be to stay safe.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I  think the 3 km section above The Notch is one of the most rewarding parts of the Skyline Trail. I love how the trail undulates \u2013 offering views down towards the Icefields Parkway on one side and out towards The Watchtower and Centre Mountain along with a couple of small lakes on the other.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The descent to Tekarra Campground is quite wonderful with wildflowers, a rushing stream, likely a marmot or two, and a very good view of Tekarra Mountain. After you pass Tekarra Campground there is some minor climbing through great patches of wildflowers to reach the turnoff to the Signal Campground and the Signal Mountain Fire Road.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What used to be a joyless last 8.5 km on the fire road, is still a knee-pounding descent \u2013 but since the 2024 Jasper fire, the forest is alive with wildflowers and the black and spotted remains of charred trees. It\u2019s now a very beautiful section \u2013 but still stay alert for bears.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Staying at Shovel Pass Lodge eliminates the heavy backpack, but it sure doesn\u2019t remove the challenge as the second day is still a long, demanding hike \u2013 and it\u2019s not for everyone.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"

class=\"wp-block-heading\">What It\u2019s Like Staying at Shovel Pass Lodge<\/h2>\n<h3 id=\"h-sleeping-arrangements\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sleeping arrangements<\/h3>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are seven cabins that can accommodate 19 people in total depending on the mix of double and single beds. The cabins are simple and very clean. All have heating and lanterns, hooks for clothes, as well as a mirror and a washbasin. <\/p>\n<h3 id=\"h-facilities\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Facilities<\/h3>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There is one main lodge with a wood-burning fireplace and a comfortable couch and chair. There are a couple of long tables with chairs in the dining room, fresh water for drinking, and a fine selection of books and games. Outside there is a covered porch with seating and a view of the meadow. Two outhouses are onsite and a cold plunge pool is a short hike away, though I never went looking for it.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"h-food\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Food<\/h3>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Shortly after we arrived we sat down outside and enjoyed cheese and crackers along with apple slices and salami, enough to keep the hunger pangs away until dinner was served. I was also able to buy a glass of wine for $10 cash. Beer and cider are your other beverage options.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"h-atmosphere\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Atmosphere<\/h3>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I found the lodge to be welcoming and friendly. It was fun to meet the other groups and hear about their travel plans. One couple was staying for a second night so they could savour the experience. A group of guys from Iowa were looking forward to the next stretch and thankful they weren\u2019t carrying heavy packs. One lady had visited the lodge several other times \u2013 but as an out-and-back hike from the Maligne Lake trailhead \u2013 an option if you don\u2019t want to deal with both The Notch and a longer day\u2019s hike out.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"h-what-to-bring\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">What to bring<\/h3>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pack an overnight change of clothes, a headlamp, cash, first aid supplies, any medications you need, a pair of camp shoes or sandals, and some warm layers for when the sun goes down. I\u2019d also recommend a small quick-dry towel and perhaps a book or e-reader should you have some spare time.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"660\" alt=\"Some of the guests at Shovel Pass Lodge on an August evening\" class=\"wp-image-150413\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hikebiketravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Some-of-the-guests-at-Shovel-Pass-Lodge-1024x660.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/hikebiketravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Some-of-the-guests-at-Shovel-Pass-Lodge-770x496.jpg 770w, https:\/\/hikebiketravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Some-of-the-guests-at-Shovel-Pass-Lodge.jpg 1200w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"https:\/\/hikebiketravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Some-of-the-guests-at-Shovel-Pass-Lodge-1024x660.jpg\"\/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"660\" src=\"https:\/\/hikebiketravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Some-of-the-guests-at-Shovel-Pass-Lodge-1024x660.jpg\" alt=\"Some of the guests at Shovel Pass Lodge on an August evening\" class=\"wp-image-150413\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hikebiketravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Some-of-the-guests-at-Shovel-Pass-Lodge-1024x660.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/hikebiketravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Some-of-the-guests-at-Shovel-Pass-Lodge-770x496.jpg 770w, https:\/\/hikebiketravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Some-of-the-guests-at-Shovel-Pass-Lodge.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Happy guests at Shovel Pass Lodge on an early August evening<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"795\" height=\"1024\" alt=\"Books and games are available to use at the lodge\" class=\"wp-image-150419\" style=\"aspect-ratio:0.7763637750820173;width:795px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hikebiketravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Books-at-the-Shovel-Pass-Lodge-795x1024.jpg 795w, https:\/\/hikebiketravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Books-at-the-Shovel-Pass-Lodge-770x991.jpg 770w, https:\/\/hikebiketravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Books-at-the-Shovel-Pass-Lodge.jpg 932w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 795px) 100vw, 795px\" src=\"https:\/\/hikebiketravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Books-at-the-Shovel-Pass-Lodge-795x1024.jpg\"\/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"795\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/hikebiketravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Books-at-the-Shovel-Pass-Lodge-795x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Books and games are available to use at the lodge\" class=\"wp-image-150419\" style=\"aspect-ratio:0.7763637750820173;width:795px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hikebiketravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Books-at-the-Shovel-Pass-Lodge-795x1024.jpg 795w, https:\/\/hikebiketravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Books-at-the-Shovel-Pass-Lodge-770x991.jpg 770w, https:\/\/hikebiketravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Books-at-the-Shovel-Pass-Lodge.jpg 932w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 795px) 100vw, 795px\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">There are enough books and games to keep you busy, especially if you spend two nights<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2 id=\"h-shovel-pass-lodge-vs-camping-on-the-skyline-trail\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Shovel Pass Lodge vs. Camping on the Skyline Trail<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Shovel Pass Lodge is a great choice when compared to camping if you have the money and the wherewithal to hike two long days on the Skyline Trail.

Many people come up short. If you live in Alberta or British Columbia you probably have a degree of flexibility \u2013 and can always try again the following year. You can also try to get a cancellation with <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/schnerp.com\/?via=leigh\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/schnerp.com\/?via=leigh\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">Schnerp<\/a><\/strong> \u2013 a service that scans for cancellations and sends you alerts.  But for those that will likely never be back in the Canadian Rockies again \u2013 you could hike the Skyline Trail with a stay at the lodge.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Shovel Pass Lodge is also great for strong hikers who want the Skyline Trail experience but don\u2019t want to carry a heavy pack. It\u2019s perfect for people short on time as most people only stay one night. It\u2019s also a good fit for older hikers who have the money and still want the backcountry experience, but prefer a more comfortable backcountry experience.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I\u2019ve done both \u2013 and at my stage in life, I\u2019m very happy to enjoy a soft bed and home-cooked meals. It saved me a lot of time not having to book online in January when the Parks Canada reservation system opens. With room for 19 people, there is some flexibility in dates.
