KOOTENAY ROCKWALL TOUR

"We just wanted to say 'thanks' to you guys and to Scott. It was the best thing we've ever done. It came across clearly to us again and again that you guys care about what you're doing, and it made it for us. Many thanks and hope to stay in touch."

Tour Description

Aptly named, the Kootenay Rockwall Tour is a journey beneath towering limestone walls and majestic hanging glaciers. On this trek, one of the most spectacular in Canada, you will also experience three alpine passes and a series of wildflower meadows. Part of this tour's beauty lies in its tendency to ride the landscape like a roller coaster, consistently ascending high passes and plunging into deep valleys. You will never grow bored of the hiking, as breathtaking views and constantly changing scenery continue to unfold before you.

Some of the specific highlights of this trip include red and yellow clay called Ochre Beds and Paint Pots, stunning glacial-fed waterfalls (including one of Canada's largest waterfalls, Helmet Falls), massive alpine peaks, sweeping oceans of wildflowers, views that go forever, and a layover day for going on a long day hike or summiting some peaks.
