Step quietly into the heart of winter in the Canadian Rockies. Slow down and experience winter the way it was meant to be — on snowshoes, deep in the quiet backcountry of the Bow Valley and Kananaskis. The Walk in the Wild Snowshoe Tour invites you to explore snow-covered forests, frozen ponds, and open alpine viewpoints while uncovering the hidden stories of the Rockies along the way. Led by an experienced interpretive guide, this half-day adventure blends gentle exploration with rich storytelling, wildlife awareness, and unforgettable winter scenery. No prior snowshoeing experience is required, making this an accessible and rewarding winter outing for all ages and abilities.
On the Bow Valley Via Ferrata winter experience, travel up Steve’s Canyon and see how time has carved away at the limestone to create beautiful smooth faces in the canyon. Along the way, climb out to stunning views of the surrounding alpine landscape. This adventure offers a unique blend of geology, vertical movement, and visual reward.

The Kananaskis River hosts playful whitewater rapids and scenic landscapes. With class 2-3 whitewater rapids, it’s a great adventure for all ages (5 years old and up) and ability levels; a river experience everyone can enjoy!
Curving out from the front range of the Canadian Rocky Mountains, the Bow River’s Horseshoe Canyon has been drawing thrill-seekers with its big waves and spirited class 2-4 whitewater rapids for decades. The steep walls of the shale canyon also offer an excellent opportunity to view large birds of prey and nesting cliff swallows.
This intermediate tour allows you to experience the scenic beauty and rush of the lower Kananaskis River in your own inflatable kayak, guided by our friendly, knowledgeable team. This half-day adventure is perfect for those looking for an active yet approachable river experience. Expect sweeping mountain views, potential wildlife sightings, and a few splashes as you navigate fun, rolling rapids. With a medium adventure rating, it’s the sweet spot between thrill and chill.

The Explorer Tour may be our shortest cave tour, but it is by no means short on fun and excitement. Your guide will introduce you to the amazing world of caves, spending approximately 2 hours underground crawling past prehistoric bones, investigating our ancient cave formations and even squeezing into places like the warm-up and challenge squeezes (if you so choose of course!).
