Frequently Asked Questions: What is Heli-Hiking?

Heli-Hiking; humbling, heavenly and how it works.


With our fleet of Bell 212 helicopters, we're able to quickly and carefully access gloriously unfettered lands where we hike and explore where few others have traversed. With an experienced group of mountain guides at the helm, guests are grouped according to their desire and physical ability,ranging from gentle days of exploration to rigorous adventure-filled days of hiking, and everything in between. Whether you choose to hike the entire day straight through or enjoy a series of shorter hikes, our guides and pilots are in constant communication to accommodate your evolving moods.

Regardless, every guest will walk through pristine flower-filled alpine meadows that very few human soles have graced, hike amidst the peaks of jaw-dropping spires, perhaps be beckoned via zip line across free-flowing rivers daring to be crossed, and maybe even pause before placing their foot on the first rung of the Via Ferrata.

Amidst the backdrop of the majestic Columbia Mountain Range of BC, Canada, our graciously warm mountain lodges await you at the end of each day. Whether single, a couple, a family or a group of life-long friends, young or simply young at heart, for weeks-long adventures, or few-day short escapes, your serene retreat or wildly spirited journey awaits you. Choose your adventure of a lifetime right now.
