We can reserve your shuttle seat with Via Via Moraine Lake Shuttle, which will be added to the base rate of a full-day hiking program.

For trips to Lake O’Hara, we can arrange your Parks Canada shuttle ticket, which will be added to the base rate of a full-day hiking program, and Michelle will meet you at the Lake O’Hara parking lot.

For all other programs, Michelle can meet you at a pre-arranged location. Please include whether you require transportation in your booking inquiry.


Food Services

Food services are not included in the base price of your program.

Lunch and snacks can be added to any program at an additional cost.


Waivers

Prior to your program date, all participants must sign a waiver of liability for Hiking, a waiver of liability for Yoga, and both in the case of a Hiking & Yoga program. Please note, the waivers are linked here for your advanced consideration, but they must be filled out in person and witnessed by Michelle on the first day of your program.


Mountain Weather & Conditions Policy

Mountain weather can be unpredictable and it plays an important role in our trip-planning process. Weather, trail conditions, trail closures, and Parks Canada advisories are all important factors in creating and delivering your experience.

Rockies Hiking & Yoga reserves the right to modify or change the original itinerary, including the hiking route, yoga location, timing, or activities, when necessary to ensure the experience is appropriate for the conditions and the group.

If conditions are not suitable for practising yoga outdoors, Michelle will make every reasonable effort to arrange an indoor alternative where possible. An indoor alternative is not guaranteed and may not always be available. Any changes to the yoga location or program itinerary will be communicated within the week leading up to your scheduled experience, or sooner if conditions require.

Please note that modifications to the original program, including changes to the time or location, may be necessary due to weather or other conditions. No refunds or price adjustments will be issued if the yoga portion of the experience is moved indoors.

In all circumstances, Michelle will do her best to select appropriate trails, activities, and alternatives that prioritize safety while providing the best possible experience for your group.

Please also review the Cancellation & Refund Policy for more information.
