Alpine Summer Adventures

The Canadian wilderness adventures and wilderness vacations offered by Callaghan Country are unparalleled. We are open for summer business from Saturday, July 17 - Monday, October 11, 2010.

Snow lingers at Callaghan Lodge, but as the valley clears of snow, the hiking, mountaineering and biking possibilities are endless. Fish abound in Callaghan Lake. As summer peaks, alpine heather and flowers bloom with an explosion of colour, and there are ample chances to view a variety of wildlife.

Sit back and relax on your wilderness vacation in British Columbia or plan your own Canadian wilderness adventure each day.


Self-Guided Hiking

Enjoy a short walk around Conflict Lake on Meadows Loop trail or pack a picnic and hike up to spectacular Ring Lake. Suitable for intermediate hikers, the trail features breathtaking views towards Mt. Callaghan and across the valley to Journeyman Peak and the spires of Les Gendarmes. The hike will take approximately 4 hours (round trip), longer if you decide to take a dip in the Lake!

 

 

Horseback Riding

We've teamed up with Copper Cayuse Outfitters - one of Sea to Sky Country's premier outfitters, to offer a 2-night guided horseback tour to Callaghan Lodge. The ride up to Callaghan Lodge will take about 5-hours. On Day 2, pack your lunch and head out for a day of alpine hiking. On Day 3, pack a saddlebag lunch and head back down the valley on horseback.

 

Heli Hiking

 

Get a lift up and begin your hiking adventure right at the top with a customized heli-hiking adventure. Savour panoramic views, meander through pristine alpine meadows and traverse high mountain ridgelines, all with the attention and care of a professional guide.
