Fastened a whopping 426 ft above the canyon floor, the Golden Skybridge is Canada’s highest suspension bridge and offers extraordinary views as well as extra thrills via the ziplining tracks, rope courses, axe throwing and more. There are countless trails in the region as well, making this the perfect location for a day trip for the whole family! Learn more here!
Via Ferrata: Scaling New Heights
If you’re looking to take your mountain adventure to the next level, our Via Ferrata tours are a must-try! Via Ferrata, which means "iron road" in Italian, is a protected climbing route that allows you to scale the face of Mt. Norquay safely thanks to the intricate network of ropes, rungs, and ladders. Fortune favours the bold as you tackle the mountainside and navigate the course with the help of your experienced guide to gain unbelievable 360° views once you reach the summit. Embrace the thrill of rushing alpine air surrounding you and grip with confidence; the design of the course means you’ll always be attached via a secure harness as you navigate for peace of mind and safety. Via Ferrata is an incredible way to experience the Rockies and a true bucket list adventure for those who love to get their heart pumping.
Please note: the minimal age for Via Ferrata tours is 12+ (Explorer and Ridgewalker) and 14+ for the Alpinist, Skyline, and Summiteer tours. We recommend participants be in good physical condition and comfortable with heights as well as navigating complex terrain.
