The Abbot Pass is a high mountain pass located on the Continental Divide in the Canadian Rockies in Yoho National Park. It is accessible via a hiking trail that starts at Lake O'Hara. The trail is about 7.4 kilometers long and takes about 4-6 hours to complete, depending on your level of fitness.

The Abbot Pass Hut is a historic mountaineering shelter located at the pass, which was built in 1922 by the Alpine Club of Canada. The hut can be rented out to hikers, mountaineers, and skiers, but advanced reservations are required. The hut is open from late June to early September and can accommodate up to 24 people.

The cost to stay at the Abbot Pass Hut varies depending on your membership status with the Alpine Club of Canada. Non-members can expect to pay around $40 CAD per night. For more information about the hut, reservations, and membership, visit the Alpine Club of Canada's website.

In addition to the Abbot Pass hike, there are plenty of other things to see and do in Yoho National Park. Some popular attractions include:

- Takakkaw Falls: A stunning 373-meter waterfall that can be accessed via a short walking trail. The falls are open year-round, but access may be limited during the winter months.
- Emerald Lake: A beautiful turquoise lake surrounded by mountains. There are several hiking trails and canoe rentals available at the lake.
- Burgess Shale Fossil Beds: A UNESCO World Heritage Site that contains some of the oldest and most well-preserved fossils in the world. Guided tours are available from late June to early September.
