“At Fortress, the mountains don’t just surround you—they humble you.”
Tucked in the heart of Kananaskis Country, Fortress Mountain is where backcountry adventure meets cinematic grandeur. Known for its powder-filled terrain, breathtaking elevation, and Hollywood-worthy scenery (yes, films like The Revenant and Inception were shot here), Fortress offers a rare mix of wild beauty and curated alpine experiences.
While the ski lifts no longer run for the public, Fortress now offers private, guided snowcat-accessed ski touring in winter and scenic hiking and photography tours in summer. It’s a bucket-list stop for adventurers seeking high-altitude solitude, dramatic views, and a taste of untouched wilderness. Here, the silence is deeper, the slopes steeper, and the experience undeniably epic.
