"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 A O Wheeler Meet Up.
"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

There is a parking lot very close to the hostel. Walk only 1 minutes up to the hut from your vehicle.
Set in a secluded, forested area in Yoho National Park, this rustic seasonal hostel is a 13-minute walk from the dramatic Takakkaw Falls. Highway 1 is 13 km away.
The simple mixed-gender dorms offer bunk beds and shared bathrooms.
Parking is complimentary. Other amenities include a shared kitchen, a lounge and barbecue facilities. There's also a fire pit.
Additional notes
Level of Difficulty:
No previous experience is necessary but a general fitness level is needed. You will need to carry your personal gear plus food and water for a short distance each day; approximately 2km. We will camp close to a hut that is booked, so if you are finding the cold too much you can always retreat to the heat.
Please note:
There is no guide present on this adventure. These hikes are taken at your own risk.
Transportation to hut is not provided. You must purchase a park pass to enter the park.
Registration can only be completed once you have read our terms and conditions.
This adventure will be cancelled if we do not have enough registrants. In the case of a cancellation, we will refund your ticket purchase.
No refunds after the registration.
