A whole trip beyond the gondola.
Golden brings mountain activities, river outings and a working mountain town into one trip. Stay at the resort base and choose a different direction each day, with practical guides to help you decide what is worth the journey.
The resort, the town and the parks.
Copper Horse Lodge is at the Kicking Horse Mountain Resort base, above Golden. The gondola is a short walk away. Town visits, rafting departures and national-park outings need separate transport.
| Area | What brings you there | From the lodge |
|---|---|---|
| Kicking Horse base | Skiing, sightseeing and mountain activities | Walk to the gondola; confirm each activity’s meeting point |
| Golden and the valley | Town meals, Skybridge and guided adventures | Plan road transport to the exact destination |
| Yoho National Park | Lakes, waterfalls and park trails | Plan a day trip east along Highway 1 |
| Glacier National Park, BC | Rogers Pass and mountain walks | Plan a day trip west along Highway 1 |
Choose the outing before filling the day.
A scenic gondola trip, a guided river outing and a higher mountain hike ask different things of your party. Use the activity guides to compare options and find current operator information.
Give the trip time to unfold.
If you want three full days outside, plan arrival and departure around them. Our seasonal itineraries use four nights and include shorter alternatives.
