A New Name, Same Unmatched Experience

Previously part of the Rocky Mountaineer brand, this elevated rail journey has been reimagined as Canyon Spirit – a name that reflects the awe-inspiring terrain it traverses.

Unhurried, Relaxed Luxury

Unlike other train journeys, Canyon Spirit moves at a pace designed for pure immersion. The glass-dome carriages ensure uninterrupted views of the dramatic landscapes, while onboard guides provide insightful commentary, bringing the journey to life.

Travelling only during daylight hours, this experience allows you to savour every moment – from the sun rising over the Colorado River to the golden hues of sunset over Utah’s rugged canyons. Every mile is a spectacle, best enjoyed without the rush.

Seamless Service & Exceptional Comfort

Every element of Canyon Spirit is crafted for effortless luxury. Enjoy gourmet cuisine, regional wines & handcrafted cocktails as you glide through some of the USA’s most iconic scenery. At night, rest in carefully selected hotels in Glenwood Springs, Moab & Salt Lake City, ensuring a seamless balance between comfort & exploration.
