​Snow has melted, bugs are beginning to fade, and nature's colour palette is emerging in full vibrancy.  It's finally here! The seasonal transformation of the Callaghan Valley is as dramatic as the landscape itself.  This season, we are keen to share this special place in its prime summer abundance by opening the doors of Journeyman Lodge to hikers from September 8th - 23rd.

Meet the 'Journeymen' of Journeyman Lodge

Our traditional Lodge Hosts are pursuing new adventures this time of year, so a few hardworking shareholders have stepped up to fill the gap: 
  • Troy Bogan - Road Builder, 
  • Bernd Carolsfeld - Master Carpenter, 
  • Bernard Nowrath - Joiner, and 
  • Rob Shortreed - Chef
The idea is to share the comforts of 'lodge life' with those wishing to explore Callaghan Country's hiking destinations from a cozy 'home base'.  We're going to be transparent...these guys are not trained hospitality professionals, but they are charming and knowledgeable locals, so you can count on that 'West Coast Hospitality' vibe.  ​
Sept 8-10...Troy Bogan & Holly Shulte
Sept 14-16...Bernd Carolsfeld aka 'Van Dieselklaken'
Sept 21-23...Bernard Nowrath aka 'Boona' & Rob Shortreed
This will be a special time to meet some of the actual 'Journeymen' of 'Journeyman Lodge'...they carry the passion and the vision that has propelled Callaghan Country forward all these years, so go ahead and ask them for those stories!   ​
The primary summer access route to Journeyman Lodge is a hike-in from Callaghan Lake Provincial Park.  During the late summer and early autumn months, Callaghan Lake is accessible by high clearance two wheel drive vehicle (driver's discretion advised). You can park your vehicle and follow a well defined hiking trail leading west from the BC Parks campsite for 4.5 kilometres. to the lodge. The trail is signed and climbs gently through a variety of West Coast forest types. The elevation gain is 150 metre elevation over 4.5 kilometres. Please allow about two hours (one way) from the trailhead to the lodge.   ​By day, trek and explore the spectacular surroundings of Callaghan Country.  By night, enjoy a family style meal, chatting with fellow guests, the warmth of a log-fire, and a good night’s sleep.
Our reservation calendar is already open for guests to book a stay!  Check availability & Book Online Now >>  
The Wilderness Explorer's package is an independent hike-in / hike-out trip from Callaghan Lake.  Click here >> for a detailed Hiking map that includes a legend along with some helpful route/trail notes and tips.   A bit different than our winter packages, these hiking  packages INCLUDE accommodation & all meals (afternoon tea service & a Backcountry BBQ dinner, with a continental breakfast & bagged lunch + hot & cold non-alcoholic beverages) for each night booked; plus the use of our Traditional Scandinavian sauna!
