Description
|
Tranquillity and seclusion awaits the nature enthusiast in this unique and award winning eco-tourism development in scenic Bighorn Country. Surrounded by National Parks on three sides, Bighorn Country is the ideal mountain get-away for visitors wishing to stay away from the more touristy locations, while retaining easy access to some of the major attractions of the Canadian Rockies. Aurum Lodge and Cottages are an all-season destination, particulary well suited for those engaging in low-impact outdoor activities such as hiking, biking, trail-riding, canoeing and climbing in summer or winter-hiking, snow-shoeing, X-country skiing, ice-climbing and dog-sledding in winter. Use this location as your base to explore the many hiking trails in the region (over 100 trail heads are within an hours drive from this retreat) or take a day trip to Lake Louise or the popular Columbia Icefields during your stay. See our website for activity suggestions.
No reservation is guaranteed unless deposit received and confirmed by e-mail or fax. Please inquire for availability of a particular unit.
