Tread Lightly Glacier Hike

Hike on the Athabasca Glacier on this sustainability focused guided tour.
After meeting your guide at our staging area, you will be given an overview that highlights some glacier science information where you will be issued with equipment for the trip. This includes mountain boots, crampons, and any other safety equipment based on conditions.
Then, your guide will walk you up to the toe of the glacier while introducing you to the dynamic alpine landscape. After stepping on to the glacier, your guide will lead you up the ice and show you some of the fascinating formations.
Depending on conditions, you will have the opportunity to increase your connection with this landscape by taking scientific samples or using ropes to explore some of these features more intimately in a safe and controlled manner.
