Tucked into the wild beauty of David Thompson Country (about 3-4 hours from either Calgary or Edmonton), this mountain gem delivers big adventure in winter. A quick day trip? Not a chance. You’ll want a full weekend (at least) to truly explore it all.

Plan your next adventure with local guides and experience it the way the locals do with these four winter activities to explore:

🚁 Heli snowshoeing with Rockies Heli
🧗 Ice climbing with Girth Hitch Guiding
🫧 Ice bubbles tour with Canadian Rockies Escapes
🍝 Dine and stay at Aurum Lodge
