Winter Gourmet Getaways

Join us for wilderness hikes or snowshoe outings in Alberta and B.C's Rocky Mountains. 
We'll follow-up a great day of fresh-air, physical activity and scenery with a stay in a fun mountain town where you can relax, grab a drink at a local cafe or pub, or perhaps indulge in a massage! We'll choose a restaurant for the evening meal and you can let us know if you'd like to join us. Choose your own accommodation; B&B, Inn's or a hotel, there are  many wonderful spots to kick off your snowshoes and relax.* These multi-day snowshoe getaways are a wonderful mix of organized outings  and free time to explore a fun town, enjoy a good book or just kick back and relax.

*Let us know if you'd like a roommate or accommodation suggestion, and we'll do our best to help.

Yoho National Park
Gourmet Snowshoe Weekend
(based in Field, BC)
Cost: $250



Rummel Lake Trail Snowshoe

Snowshoeing is as easy as walking but much more fun. You burn off the winter blahs as you follow a well-laid trail or break your own in the endless powder-fresh snow. Snowshoeing is an activity that is accessible to everyone. It takes no technical ability and with Fit Frog you can pace for pleasure as you pounce through powder or relax and enjoy as you follow the beaten track.  For those who love to cross-country ski, bring your skis and try the track set trails around Field and nearby Emerald Lake Lodge. You can join the group or find your own adventure; trail maps will be provided. Accommodation is suggested, but not provided. We'll stay in Field, BC; a hamlet with a variety of B&B's and one hotel. (see below)

We carpool from Calgary at 8 am on Friday and return on Sunday at around 5 pm.
