Nicknamed \u201cthe Torres del Paine of the north\u201d, Tombstone Territorial<br>Park is impressive; there\u2019s barely another soul in sight, such is the beauty of travelling through Canada in<br>autumn. I\u2019ve been to Yukon in the depths of winter, too, when the environment is equally as beautiful and<br>grand.

Take a boat tour to catch sight of orcas, Pacific grays, minkes and humpbacks. There are also black bears in the region, as well as grizzly bears in the magnificent Great Bear Rainforest. Although tours start in spring, they run through October, an ideal month because it\u2019s not as busy. Manitoba\u2019s polar bears should also be on your list. The tiny northern town of Churchill has been nicknamed the \u201cpolar bear capital of the world\u201d, and you can expect to see plenty with an expert guide from mid-October to mid-November.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Forest bathing <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/au\/search?destinationName=Canada&amp;destinationId=le_c16a5320fa475530d9583c34fd356ef5&amp;adults=2&amp;children=none&amp;flexibleWithDate=true&amp;pages=2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/KBialous_GF13778-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"Enjoy the colours of  autumn with a forest walk, one of the best things to do in Canada during the cooler months - Luxury Escapes\" class=\"wp-image-13715\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the best places to experience the shifting autumn landscape is in Nova Scotia\u2019s Annapolis Valley.<br>Enjoy the colours while cycling past wineries, historic sites and apple orchards.
