Rocky Mountains Helicopter Ride + Snowshoeing from Cline River

This activity perfectly combines two exhilarating experiences in a single day: an exciting helicopter flight paired with a snowshoe hiking trek amidst the stunning Rocky Mountains.

Description

Get ready to immerse yourself in the beauty of the Canadian Rockies! We will convene close to the David Thompson Highway, where our adventure begins as we board a helicopter to take to the skies.

As we fly above the Rockies, witness the spectacular glaciers near Cline River, the impressive canyons of Coral Creek, and the breathtaking Michelle Lakes, characterized by their stunning waterfalls. Upon landing in the wild, the real excitement awaits.

Equipping ourselves with snowshoes, we will set off on an hour-long hike through this picturesque winter landscape. Depending on the weather conditions, we may journey to Landslide Lake or explore other enchanting spots, all showcasing the natural splendor of the Rocky Mountains. Prepare to be amazed by the views!

As we take in the beautiful scenery, we will delight in the snowshoeing experience. If you’re a novice, no need to worry; it’s easy to pick up and incredibly enjoyable! To warm us up, we will savor a delicious cup of hot chocolate. Delightful!

As our adventure concludes, we will board the helicopter once more and return to our starting point after an unforgettable hour and 20 minutes of exploration.

Visit Abraham Lake

Ready to elevate your experience even further? Opt for an exhilarating addition that includes a 20-minute helicopter flight followed by a fantastic one-hour snowshoeing excursion.

But there’s more! You’ll enjoy an extra hour and a half at Abraham Lake, the largest artificial reservoir in Alberta, featuring a remarkable natural phenomenon. The lake's bottom hosts plants that emit methane gas. As the gas rises, it gets trapped beneath the frozen surface, creating an extraordinary visual spectacle that is simply awe-inspiring.

If you seek the ultimate adventure, select this option to indulge in a helicopter ride, snowshoeing, and the breathtaking views of Abraham Lake.

Departure times

We will communicate the schedule for the activity a few days ahead, as it depends on weather patterns for the helicopter flights. Typically, these flights occur between 8 am and 5 pm. Stay tuned for the final arrangements and prepare for an incredible journey in the skies!
