This is our most popular event - winterized!

"Strangers had the opportunity to become friends. When it’s all women, you take lead, push further, you laugh harder, and you summit that mountain."  // Kieren Britton - The Lady Alliance

"This community and my experience on their First Annual Adventure to the A.O. Wheeler Hut in Glacier National Park, has left such a positive imprint in my life. For someone who was new to the hiking world at the beginning of this summer, it was very easy to find inspiration on social media, which usually turned into being overwhelmed. The true inspiration came from when I discovered The Lady Alliance." // Kelsey Derkach 

Perfect for adventurers at all experience levels! Hikes span from easy to difficult! 

Please Note: There are no guides on this adventure. This is a community meet up.

Yoga is optional.

Are you not feeling a hike that day? Check out mellow walks or sights in the area.

We all cook and clean together, so we encourage everyone to be around the hut during meals. 

The hostel - from ACC

Family reunions, retreats, and group get-togethers of all kinds are what the Bell Cabin was made for. The Bell is perfect for small groups (up to 15 people) that want to hang out in the same place, and away from everyone else.

In addition to a large BBQ deck with one of the best views in the Bow Valley, the Bell offers an extra cozy living room with leather couches and fireplace, dorm room accommodation for up to 15 people, 2 shower rooms, free wi-fi and a fully equipped kitchen. And all at a price that you don’t expect in Canmore.

It’s the perfect cabin for any group that is looking for a place to get together with convenience and privacy.

The Bell Cabin is a separate accommodation facility on the grounds of the ACC Clubhouse . This is a front-country facility with drive-up access.

The Alpine Club of Canada’s Clubhouse is located on a spectacular and sunny bench 4.5 km east of the of the town of Canmore, Alberta. From the TransCanada Highway take the 1A exit (#91) and travel east approximately 1 km to Indian Flats Road; follow the road to the top of the hill.
