Spiral Tunnels View Point, BC, access from north side of highway. The renowned Spiral Tunnels on the CP Rail Line was opened in 1909. The route required two tunnels driven in three-quarter circles into the valley walls. The construction and extra track increased the length of the climb. Building these tunnels through sheer rock required a work force of about 1,000 and cost about 1.5 million Canadian dollars. This is one of the steepest, most scenic railway lines in North America. It crosses the Kicking Horse River, runs under Mount Ogden and Cathedral Mountain, and proceeds to the town of Field, BC.
