Engadine Lodge Snowshoe Getaway
January 30, 2022 @ 8:00 am - January 31, 2022 @ 4:00 pm
Description:
Treat yourself to a 2-day snowshoe getaway*! We’ll carpool from Calgary bright and early on day 1 to snowshoe into Rummel Lake, in the Spray Lakes area of Kananaskis. Post-snowshoe, we’ll walk a few steps to Engadine Lodge, where we’ll enjoy our afternoon tea before relaxing into the evening. A gourmet dinner awaits us and then maybe some star watching or reading a good book. Day 2 starts with a tasty breakfast at the lodge, a packed lunch ready for our day, and another powder-pouncing snowshoe in the Spray Lakes area. This multi-day trip is a stand-alone event and not part of the session membership packages.
