In the Spirit of Preservation

Categories: Sustainability and Responsible Tourism

“We don’t just explore nature—we protect it.”

Kananaskis is one of the few places where conservation and tourism coexist by design. With over 4,000 square kilometres of protected parkland and a region-wide Conservation Pass that directly funds trail upkeep and habitat restoration, Kananaskis is built on stewardship. Visitors are encouraged to tread lightly, travel responsibly, and leave no trace.

Businesses like Mount Engadine Lodge and Sundance by Basecamp embody this ethos. At Engadine, guests stay off-grid with gourmet meals, wildlife viewing, and zero screen time. At Sundance, canvas tipis and trapper’s tents offer rustic shelter in a forested river valley—glamping with minimal footprint. Every experience is shaped by a shared respect for land, water, and wildlife.
