Chasing waterfalls before winter transforms them into frozen wonders. This one's too remote to be included in our tours, but what a beauty! 🤩

The days are growing colder and we've finally put the boats away. What an awesome season it’s been! There's nothing quite like the autumn light on the river. 🛶🍂

Exciting news: We're starting an Adventure Tourism Company! ⛰️

After an amazing couple years as Nordegg Escape, we’re thrilled to announce a new chapter for our family! We’re becoming – a name that better reflects the adventure, beauty, and spirit of the experiences we offer.

We started with a couple guidebooks and an Airbnb, but as passionate locals who’ve called this area home and worked in the outdoor industry for most of our adult lives, it only made sense to expand into the adventure tourism world. Our love for the Rockies goes beyond accommodations, and we will now be offering incredible experiences like ice bubble tours, heli-hiking, e-bike tours, side-by-side adventures and more!

We will still be posting similar content in addition to exciting tours, packages, conditions of the area, and behind the scenes fun! We can’t wait to share this new chapter with you! 🤗

Fall extravaganza!! 🍂⛰️

September is our favourite month of the year, and for good reason! 🤩 It was hard to pick just one picture so here are some highlights from this past week. Which one is your favourite?

Who needs larches when you have this?! 😍 It's absolutely spectacular out there right now, and it looks like we're set to hit peak colour this weekend! 🍂

One of the best things about fall? You don’t have to stay up past your bedtime to catch the northern lights! We were lucky to witness this spectacular show just a couple nights ago. ✨️

It sure looks pretty up there this time of year! ⛰️ 🍂

🌲Nature's Power on Display🔥

Although Nordegg and its surrounding communities were never threatened by the Wapiabi and Ram fires, the natural beauty and power on display last week were absolutely breathtaking!

Thanks to 3 days of heavy rain and cooler temps, the fires have significantly reduced, and the skies are now clear of smoke. 🌞

A huge thank you to the firefighters and personnel working tirelessly in Alberta to keep us safe! 🙏

Mt Frank is the peak located at the end of Whirlpool Ridge. It stands alone and gives you incredible views in all directions. Does anyone know the name of the lake it overlooks? 🤔

If you are interested in how to get to this spot, we have it in our scrambling guide.

🚴🏻‍♀️ Black Mountain appreciation post! 🚴🏻‍♀️ October means each trail ride might be the last 🍂 Anyone who knows our daughter knows how much she loves to ride her bike, however riding shotgun with dad always brings the excitement to a whole new level! Have you tried the brand new trail network on Black Mountain? A huge shoutout to @norca_nordegg_offroad_cycling and @starrtrailsolutions for all their work building the trails! 🙏 #nordegg #dtcountry #nordeggmtb #mtb

Mt Cline magic ✨️⛰️ #nordegg #dtcountry #canadianrockies #explorealberta #explorecanada #scramblinginthecanadianrockies

Nothing like crowning the day with an evening summit around Nordegg. We live in the best little town! 🌄 #nordegg #dtcountry #canadianrockies #explorealberta #explorecanada

Magical moment on the way down from Bridge Peak 🐏. A flock of sheep approached and the babies were so curious 👀. After a look, they moved on up the ridge. Not a person in sight all day. #dtcountry is the best! #nordegg #canadianrockies #abrahamlake #explorealberta #explorecanada #scramblinginthecanadianrockies #wildlife #wildlifevideos

⛰Discover the beauty in the unexpected and find magic where you least expect it! Another hidden gem rarely seen! 💎 #dtcountry #nordegg #canadianrockies #abrahamlake #explorealberta #explorecanada #albertawaterfalls #waterfall

That feeling of being really small in the mountains. What an epic day on Hangman Peak, one of the largest and remote in the area. Enjoy ❤ This will be in the updated Scrambling book as well!📖 #dtcountry #nordegg #abrahamlake #explorecanada #canadianrockies #explorealberta #scramblinginthecanadianrockies #dronevideos

Another great waterfall hidden in our corner of the Rockies! We wonder how many of you have been here before? ⛰💦 #nordegg #dtcountry #canadianrockies #abrahamlake #explorecanada #explorealberta #dronevideos #canyon #slotcanyon

Good evening, Nordegg! #dtcountry #nordegg

We love mountain and adventure photography, and our page reflects it. We tend to forget to post about our actual Airbnb and let’s face it, it’s a basement suite, so there’s nothing extravagant about it and we don’t even attempt to compete with some of the amazing cabins Nordegg has to offer! However, we take pride in offering a cozy, comfortable space that remains one of the most affordable options in town. And quite frankly, we think the views from our neighbourhood are the best in Nordegg! 🏔 So here is a quick tour from our humble abode. Now, let's return to our regularly scheduled programming of mountain vistas for the foreseeable future! #dtcountry #nordegg #albertaairbnb #mountainairbnb

More biking explorations while we wait for summits to melt! E-bikes have completely changed the way we adventure, enabling us to go faster and further than we previously could. If you've never tried an e-bike, @getoutandplaynordegg and @canadaoutdooradventure provide e-bike rentals for the Nordegg area! Feel free to get in touch if you're looking for trail suggestions 🚴‍♀️🏔 #dtcountry #nordegg #kootenayplains #backcountrybiking #canadianrockies #abrahamlake

Springtime shenanigans in our beautiful backyard. Also the crocuses are out! That means spring has officially sprung, right? #explorenordegg #dtcountry #abrahamlake #kootenayplains #canadianrockies #northsaskatchewanriver #explorealberta #explorecanada #nordegg #backcountrybiking #bikingadventures #kidswhoexplore

Moody day at the lake. #explorenordegg #dtcountry #abrahamlake #canadianrockies #explorealberta #explorecanada #nordegg #winterwonderland #mountains

Ever wondered what lies in the depths of Cline River Canyon? #explorenordegg #dtcountry #abrahamlake #canadianrockies #nordegg #explorecanada #explorealberta #canyons #slotcanyons

#abrahamlake froze this year during a windy snowstorm, creating psychedelic patterns on broken ice sheets! Aerial views allow you to truly understand the size and scope of nature's artwork. ❄ #nordegg #explorecanada #explorealberta #explorenordegg #dtcountry #canadianrockies #frozenlake #winterwonderland

Why is the ice on Abraham Lake so clear and smooth? Because the relentless wind blows snow crystals that polish the surface! So next time you are out getting battered by the wind, remember that it plays a major role in making the place so special! 🌬💨 Video taken on Jan 16th. #abrahamlake #nordegg #explorenordegg #explorealberta #explorecanada #dtcountry #canadianrockies #winterwonderland #icebubbles
