DESCRIPTION:
The Rockwall Trail in British Columbia’s Kootenay National Park is one of the classic treks of the Rockies.
Over 5 days the group will spend an amazing time hiking through the alpine past lakes and meadows to crest broad passes, and hiking down to camp every night.
The trail follows an incredible escarpment of high limestone along the way. Numa Pass, the highest point of the trail, offers a stunning view at 2317 m. We will be able to enjoy from that point the rest of the hiking trail to come.
During these incredible Rockwall Trail hike, the group will cover approximately 56 km and gain 2400 meter of altitude. Each day includes one high pass, at least, with opportunities to hike to a high vantage point.
You will spend the first night in Banff and get ready for the trip, meeting at the Alpine Air Adventures office down town Banff. Next day, the group will drive to Kootenay National Park. It’s a 40 min drive to the Helmet Falls trailhead.
Then, the adventure begins! A detailed day-by-day itinerary will be sent out once booking is made.
During these days, we will enjoy the amazing beauty of the Rockies, with its meadows, glacier and lakes.
