What is Ski Touring lodge?

Ski Touring lodge is a very unique style of enjoying powder skiing / riding and Canada is definitely the best place to do.

You will fly into the lodge and spend 7 days there. Everyday you will ski or hike from the door and ski down to the lodge.

Just because you must fly in, no other people can even access the area so always untouched snow is preserved and wait for shredders, YES that would be your group!

 

Canada is the second largest country with only 37 million people living in. This means unlimited unoccupied space in the mountain ranges. Not many places in the world you can have your own mountains for a week long skiing.

 

This is why Canada is the best place to do ski touring lodge week.

 

ONSIGHT CANADA arranges guides, cooks and transportation from the nearest airport.

Only you need are your buddies, backcountry ski gear and your passion, we will take care of the rest!!

Most backcountry lodges are open from mid December to Mid May.

So you have to plan well ahead to book. Generally we recommend to start planning about 1-2 year in advance.
