The cozy lodge in Canadian log cabin style is quietly situated in the forest directly on the Atnarko River. The nine guest log cabins with cozy gas fireplaces for up to 2 people each are grouped around a clearing where bears often roam in summer. The store, bar, lounge area with a large open fireplace and the dining area are located in the main chalet. Adjacent to this are the sauna and the outdoor whirlpool.

Simple, fast and exclusive! And best of all: the flight to and from Vancouver is included in the price. A private charter plane will take you directly to Bella Coola. After the one-hour flight, the helicopter will be waiting for you at the terminal. You get out of the plane, change your clothes, climb into the helicopter and, after the obligatory safety briefing, ski your first runs on the day of arrival! While heliskiers elsewhere are still sitting on the shuttle bus for hours on the day of arrival, you are already making your first turns through the powder! After the last run, you head straight to the lodge, where your luggage is already waiting in your room and après-ski snacks are waiting for you at the bar. Skiing continues on the last day. The helicopter will drop you off at the airport in Bella Coola, where your luggage will be ready for you to change into and you will board the charter plane to Vancouver.
If you are traveling from Europe, you will need to plan an overnight stay in Vancouver for the outward and return journey. Talk to us. We have numerous hotels at special rates for heliskiers.
