Experience the Rockies
A majestic playground lies an hour-and-a-half drive west from Calgary. Nothing can compare to Alberta’s Rocky Mountains, and the opportunities for adventure are endless. During the winter, hit the slopes and push your limits on some of the most vertical hills in the world and take advantage of the fact that most of Alberta’s major ski resorts offer special rates to students.
You can also enjoy the splendor of the outdoors by snowshoeing or cross-country skiing through hundreds of trails in the backcountry. During the shoulder seasons in autumn and spring, you can get out to the mountains to enjoy canoeing, kayaking, alpine scrambling, horseback riding, mountain biking and more.
Where else can you can summit a mountain in the afternoon and be back on campus to celebrate your accomplishments the same evening? If you want it, the Rockies have it.
