Vancouver to Toronto

After weeks of talking about it i've finally decided to plan an very rough route from Vancouver to Toronto. No one knows who'll make the final 7 (or if we'll get another car), or what we'll be buying/renting, but tell me what you think of the route and we'll work the rest from there.

The miles are based on a 2 year old Road Map and they didnt give you distances interstate so some of them are a wild guess :)

Day 1. Vancouver, BC to Banff, AB
Highway 1 - 550miles

Day 2. Banff, AB to Calgary, AB to Glacier National Park, MT
Highways 2 and 5 - 200miles

  • Couldn't be bothered to read that list, its pretty long but count me in anyway. Just think, when you get back you'll be able to travel around England following your beloved Sunderland. You'll get to go to Luton, Hull, Burnley, Stoke, Plymouth, Coventry, Ipswich.
