Hike BC’s mountains on guided multi-day alpine hiking trips and wilderness trekking tours. Imagine secluded alpine basins, abundant wildlife, open-air lunches with stunning scenery, 50 million year-old fossils, and over 150 species of wildflowers and 210 species of birds. Like true explorers you and your guide(s) will access the alpine by foot, carrying only a daypack. The packhorse carries your personal gear and supplies on hut based trips.
Walk through flowering meadows and past pristine alpine lakes en route to your mountain hut. This trip is full of hiking for nature lovers and incorporates spectacular scenery and wildflowers. Jumping trout dimple the water surface, the call of the resident loons echo between the mountain ridges, and the canoe on the beach beckons you take the paddle. The slow pace of nature is addicting and you begin to rise and sleep by nature’s clock.
Accommodation is in a mountain hut located just below the tree line. Hike alpine meadows to lofty mountain ridges and view the panorama of surrounding mountain ranges. Hike a new mountain ridge each day for another 360 degree view. Scope for grizzly bear, bighorn sheep, mountain goat and mule deer. The world is at your feet while you breathe in the clear mountain air.
Hike to your first mountain hut located on the edge of the sub-alpine. Walk the meadows, scramble over mountain divides and skirt the edge of a glacier. Cross crystal-clear streams and high-mountain passes to your next hut located in a different valley with its own unique sub-alpine terrain. The trails take you to pristine and wild areas yet to be discovered by the average hiker.
All-inclusive adventures include accommodation, meals, guide(s) and transportation of personal gear.
Accommodation is our Ranch during Ranch based hikes, and Alpine Hut(s) during Hut based hikes.
Access in and out of camps varies between 3–9 hours and 5–20 km, and includes elevation changes up to 1,000m over uneven terrain. Daily itineraries vary according to the level of the trip and group interest.

“The memories of the wildflowers on the mountainsides will live forever in our minds. The lupines, glacier lilies, Indian paintbrushes and other flowers all create a Technicolor feast that helped us hike on for even better views. Once at the higher elevations, we were rewarded with views that were exhilarating. This grandeur could have been spoiled if your organization was not top notch. Our guide was superb. Thank you for making our hiking trip so memorable.” |
