REGENERATIVE ACCOMMODATION

A stay connected
to a living place.

For us, regenerative accommodation means building a tourism business that helps restore the living systems it depends on: healthy soil, growing forests and thriving wild places.

01 / SOIL

Start with the ground.

We’re using soil amendments locally as part of our work to rebuild soil health. It’s practical work that begins beneath our feet.

02 / FORESTS

Grow what comes next.

We’re growing trees for reforestation projects, including our work in the Kootenay River burn area. The aim is to help forests establish and flourish again.

03 / BIOLOGICAL ENERGY

Build. Test. Share.

Winston’s Cabin is our next experiment: exploring microbial heat and water reuse, and how biological energy could help transform tourism. The system is in development; results are still to come.

Come geek out with us — our regenerative approach

STAY UNDER CANVAS

A real bed.
A wood stove.
A winter outside.

Settle into your own trapper tent, hang up your layers, and make yourself at home in the woods.

There’s bedding and firewood waiting. A shared kitchen for the food you bring. And room around the table when you’re ready for company.

Winter camping asks you to take part. Tend your stove, dress for the season, and let the pace change.

What to expect

A WINTER DAY AT CAMP MOOSE TRAIL

Quiet mornings.
Active days. Warm nights.

Make a plan for the day.
Leave some room for the evening.

01 / MORNING

Start with a fire.

Wake up under canvas. Light the stove, pull on your layers, and head to the shared kitchen. Put the kettle on. Cook what you brought.

02 / OUT THERE

Make a day of it.

Snowshoe towards the river, hike to nearby ice climbing, or head out for ski touring at Rogers Pass. Choose your day around your experience and the conditions.

Light a fire, get supper going. Swap stories over a meal. Pull a board game off the shelf. See what tomorrow brings.

Days out on the ice. Evenings back at camp.

THINGS TO DO

of winter.

WINSTON’S CABIN · IN DEVELOPMENT

Built by hand.
Still evolving.

Winston’s Cabin is our next living experiment.

We’re exploring how biological energy could help transform the tourism industry, starting with Winston’s Cabin. Real work, documented progress, and lessons from the process.

Build in progress. Opening dates and cabin stays are still to come.

BEFORE YOU ARRIVE

Come prepared.
We’ll help you settle in.

Simple comforts. Clear expectations.

What’s in a winter tent?

A queen bed, winter bedding, a wood stove and firewood. Kicking Horse has two queen beds. Bring dry sleep layers, a toque and warm socks.

For continuous heat overnight, you’ll need to tend the fire. Temperatures under canvas change through the night.

What should I bring?

All your food, warm layers and sturdy winter boots. We recommend microspikes for icy paths. Shared kitchens have cookware, dishes and utensils for preparing your own meals.

How do winter facilities work?

Camp has outhouses. For a winter bag shower, heat water in the kitchen. There’s a short walk from parking to camp on a shovelled path.

The sauna is being rebuilt. Ask us about the facilities available for your dates before you book.

How many guests can the camp accommodate?

The camp sleeps 22 guests in winter. Planning a larger group? Get in touch—we can discuss adjustments for your group before confirming a booking. Weekend whole-camp stays require both nights.
