Canmore Adventures (summer)

The Mt Assiniboine & Glacier Tour is a sensational flight that transports you right by the famous Three Sisters Peaks and on to Mount Assiniboine, affectionately known as the “Matterhorn of the Canadian Rockies.” Mount Assiniboine rises majestically to 3,611 meters (11,870ft) and sits along the British Columbia – Alberta Border. The surrounding glaciers and ice falls will capture your imagination as you get up close and personal with both the Assiniboine and Gloria Glaciers. This is a breathtaking experience not to be missed!

An easy approach, an ideal location to learn rappelling, and amazing scenery all make this trip the perfect choice for your first canyoning trip. Heart Creek Canyon is also our closest trip to the townsites of Banff & Canmore (10 minute drive from Canmore, 30 min drive from Banff). Upper Heart Canyon provides a perfect location to learn and develop your rope rappelling skills. Introductory short rappels allow you to ease into rappelling and increase in length as you progress down the canyon, finally culminating with an exciting 70-80ft+ wet waterfall rappel and slide (optional: it is possible to hike around the lower falls). 

Due to the active nature of this trip we require all participants to be at least 12 years of age. Participants do not require any previous rope or rappelling experience, they must though be relatively comfortable with heights.
