Description
Running along the border between British Columbia and Alberta, the Canadian Rockies are a veritable playground for rock climbing enthusiasts!
Over our week together, we will explore some of the best spots around the idyllic town of Canmore and the iconic Lake Louise.
The fun begins on day one after we meet up at our pre-determined location and drive on to the campsite near Canmore.
The next three days will be spent climbing the incredible crags and enjoying the phenomenal scenery of Banff National Park and over this incredible part of the Canadian Rockies.
Canmore offers a plethora of climbing from highly technical slab to pocketed overhanging jug hauls, making it the perfect spot for rock climbers of every level.
After three days in Canmore, we will head north to Lake Louise. Here, we will spend another three days climbing on pristine quartzite beneath the Victoria Glacier. It's quite a unique experience and offers plenty of trad and sport climbing routes.
Each evening, after a long day of climbing, we will return to camp to enjoy some great home-cooked meals and meet fellow climbers who have come here from all over the world.
So what are you waiting for? Book now for this unforgettable 1-week rock climbing experience in the Canadian Rocky Mountains around Canmore and Lake Louise!
