Heli Hiking Gift Card

CA$595.00
  • Location: Banff, AB

Join one of our guides for one of the best days of hiking you can ever imagine! With little effort you’ll be transported by helicopter up through a mountain valley and then dropped off onto a high alpine meadow where you’ll have fantastic high alpine hiking, unsurpassed mountain views in all directions… and you’ll be the only people around for miles! From the starting point, you’ll have 2 1/2 to 3 hours to hike over open meadows and ridges with your guide.  The hiking difficulty ranges from easy to moderate depending the makeup of the group with lots of changes in terrain. You'll have options to walk grassy ridgelines, cross streams, observe herds of bighorn sheep a short ways away and summit one of the easy to reach mountain tops or walk up to an ancient native medicine wheel.

This excursion offers return 6-8 minute scenic helicopter flights to a secluded area high above the Bow River Valley and 2 1/2 to 3 hours of hiking, with the pace and distance covered depending entirely on the ability of the group.
