Adventure Details

Canada has the best ice climbing in the world! Learn to climb a frozen waterfall with us!

This two day adventure starts when you meet your guide and get your equipment. From there we will travel to our climbing site. The two day tour allows us to focus on coaching you in technical skills like footwork, balance, and fluid movement. It also gives you more extended time for climbing while visiting a different location each day.

  • All technical equipment included (boots, crampons, harnesses, axes, helmet)
  • Wear winter clothing and lots of layers (what you would wear to the ski hill)
  • Please arrive with lunch, water, a full tank of gas, and be ready to adventure

Had an Amazing 2 day intro to ice course! Both of the Guides were friendly, informative, and good coaches as well. Had a great experience and brought knowledge and memories home I’ll keep for the rest of my life.
