Ice Climbing Adventures in the Rockies’

Banff National Park, Alberta

Nearly everybody in the world knows about the Rockies‘. Whether it is for hiking in Jasper, skiing in Lake Louise or shopping in Banff – these here mountains are famous. The list of activities is practically endless. When the summer months close and you are beginning to feel depressed because you can’t hike and climb anymore. Don’t worry – there are experts up here who make sure that there are adrenalin-filled adventures ready for you 366 days of the year. One of these companies is Yamnuska Mountain Adventures.

Ice Climbing is one of the 'coolest' activities to do in the Rockies...

Yamnuska has been around for over 30 years in the Canadian Rockies acting as, amongst other things, ice climbing guide experts. Every year hundreds of visitors from around the world flock to do what most normal people would call an insane activity – climbing up ice and frozen waterfalls. Regardless of your skill level, the guides at Yamnuska will make sure you complete what you set out to do safely and while having a lot of fun. The scenery as you climb the ice itself is enough of a reason to try it.

Some of the best ice climbing can be found in the Canadian Rockies, namely in the areas surrounding Banff, Canmore and Lake Louise. It is one of the most exciting (and exhausting) activities and when you have some of the friendliest guides who are certified by the Association of Canadian Mountain Guides, there is no reason not to give it a go. Trust me when I say that Ice Climbing in the Canadian Rockies is one of the most memorable things to do whether it is for a corporate team building day or Granddads’ birthday – it will be carved in your memory.
