Where We Stay

	From day one, our leaders introduce you to the joy of camping and guide you in everything you need to know. On this adventure you will stay at private campgrounds or National Parks where you'll find private hot showers and bathroom facilities. You’ll enjoy sturdy tents with quick and simple set-up, and on 360º, we provide thermal rest mattresses so there’s no need to buy your own. In Vancouver and in Calgary, we’ll stay indoors at a college dorm. You’ll enjoy the excitement of city entertainment, activities and nightlife. And in Calgary, we'll have our final banquet dinner before returning home.

Squamish & Whistler British Columbia – (9 nights)

Welcome to “Sea to Sky” country. The majestic beauty of Shannon Falls, the Stawamus "Chief," and the 38 acres of lush, green forest, will take your breath away. After amazing days of rock climbing, skiing or snowboarding, mountain biking, zip lining, and glacier walking, the sound of the babbling brook will peacefully lull you to sleep.

Vancouver, British Columbia – (1 night - Dorms)

University of British Columbia

UBC’s campus consists of some great recreational facilities including a gym with cardio and weight rooms as well as an Olympic size indoor and an outdoor swimming pool. We’ll explore Vancouver and enjoy a taste of college life.

Okanagan Valley – (4 nights)

The interior of British Columbia boasts some of the sunniest weather you can imagine. Our campsites in Chilliwack and Kelowna are situated to take advantage of the area - you will enjoy whitewater rafting, tubing, and a great beach day on Lake Penticton.

Jasper, Alberta – (3 nights)

We will move on to a three night stay in Jasper. Jasper National Park is the largest and most northerly Canadian Rocky Mountain National Park, part of a spectacular World Heritage Site. Comprised of delicate and carefully protected ecosystems, Jasper's scenery is rugged and mountainous. In this special corner of Canada, we will enjoy the beauty of Mount Edith Cavell, connect with nature along 1,000-plus kilometers of trails, experience Athabasca Glacier by giant snowmobile, indulge in a relaxing soak in Miette Hot Springs and venture into caves.

Banff, Alberta – (5 nights)

Banff National Park is Canada's first national park and the world's third. Spanning 2,564 square miles of valleys, mountains, glaciers, forests, meadows and rivers, Banff is one of the world's premier destinations. Our campsite is in the National Park but less than a mile from the town of Banff allowing us to wake up with spectacular views and fresh air but having access to all the facilities of a world class resort area. We will spend our time here exploring the Canadian Rockies in as many ways as possible: biking, rafting, hiking, canoeing and enjoying Banff town life.

Calgary, Alberta – (2 night – Dorms)

We’ll head into Western Canada’s best known cowboy town, and home to the 1988 Winter Olympic Games. You’ll take in a taste of college life before our final banquet dinner and our journey home.
