The Hiking – Nordic Trekking
Each 3-4 hour fitness hike is unique, and we’ve picked the very best the area has to offer, taking full advantage of the local Provincial Parks and trails. Guests are divided into three to four fitness-based groups and led by experienced hiking guides trained in Wilderness First Aid. Lunch is eaten each day at a convenient spot along the trail – usually a scenic location such as a waterfall, alpine lake, meadow or glacier-fed river.
Picnic Lunch on Trail (12:30pm)
The chefs prepare all your snacks and your delicious and hearty lunch – exactly what you’re looking for in a fulfilling meal on the trail.
Return to Lodge (3:30pm)
Take time to shower or enjoy a hot tub soak, relax and enjoy the accomplishment of your hike.

Our gourmet spa cuisine dinners are rich in colour and variety. Prepare to enjoy fresh, tasty, organic and very satisfying dishes.

Sweat and purge toxins, burn fat, and improve cardio endurance and strength with our evening functional fitness classes, or relax into the evening with a nature walk. It’s your choice based on your energy levels that day.
Spa, Massage & Detox (7:00pm+)
Relax with a massage & detox treatment, or spend time in our steam room, infrared sauna, outdoor jacuzzi, or cold plunge. Our state-of-the-art spa has it all. You can also visit the natural mineral hot springs, just 5 minutes away.
Is Mountain Trek Right For You?
The Mountain Trek program has been designed, delivered, and evolved over the past two decades to help guests reset and reclaim their fitness, health, and wellness. We carefully and intentionally share and implement science-based methods that raise your metabolism, balance key hormones, reduce cellular inflammation, burn fat, and modulate your endocrine and nervous systems. The result is lasting, genuine health improvements.
Prior to booking, we like to ensure potential guests know that our program is an immersive health reset, not a sit-by-the-pool-with-cucumbers-on-their-eyes vacation. If you are exhausted, burned out, or fed up with your current state of health, you have come to the right place.
Every aspect of your week is meticulously designed and personalized by our team of 40+ professionals, who expertly guide you (and a maximum of 15 other guests) through a life-changing health journey. In the week you are with us, our program will transform your physical, mental, and emotional health, and return you home feeling 10 years younger. These results don’t come easy, however. We do not offer caffeine, alcohol, or sugar, and our nutrition plan is highly specified to reset your metabolism and rebalance hormones. You will move your body like an Olympian, recover deeply with therapeutic massages, melt stress away in our state-of-the-art spa, and sleep deeply for 8+ hours each night.
