Let Back of Beyond help make your dreams come true. We offer day hikes in world-famous Banff, Yoho and Kootenay National Parks, as well as the relatively untouched wilderness of Kananaskis Country and Peter Loughheed Provincial Park to the south. We take our clients into "the back of beyond" by getting them off the beaten path to enjoy high alpine meadows, azure lakes, top-of-the-world passes and the silent power of the area's many glaciers. At Back of Beyond, we believe there are too many paths in the Rockies to hike the same one twice. We design our day trips so you avoid backtracking by hiking loops along new paths. This means that on one trip you might walk a ridge along the Continental Divide, hike through pristine meadows rich with wildflowers, and follow a glacier-fed stream through thick forests of spruce and fir.
Back of Beyond believes that in order to help maintain the ecological integrity of the Rocky Mountains, groups using the backcountry should be kept small. We limit the size of our groups to a maximum of 8 people, providing you with a personalized adventure through one of the most beautiful landscapes in the world. Basic Price: These are custom hikes which are, privately guided. Price per person depends on the number of participants in your group. Please enquire.Above Adventures Include:
All of our groups are small (maximum of 8 participants), personalised and specialised for those who want more than just a walk but are looking for an experience that helps them fully appreciate the stunning Rocky Mountain environment.

Imagine yourself skirting the toe of
Emerald Glacier while Canada's fourth highest waterfall thunders from the sky
across the valley. Imagine yourself hiking through Healy Meadow, The Monarch
towering above your head and yellow glacier lilies blanketing the ground
beneath your feet. Imagine yourself walking through stands of golden larch in
high alpine country below Stanley Glacier. 
Back of Beyond's interpretive guides bring the natural
and human history of the Rockies to life. Our guides explain everything from
how tectonic forces shaped the Rocky Mountains to the ecological relationships
between, say, grizzly bears and cow parsnip. By providing proper pacing,
frequent rest stops, and adequate food and water, our guides make these
challenging day-long journeys pure pleasure.
