Mobile ticket

Listen to stories of the night sky from our guides and our Indigenous friends. The stories amongst the stars connect us to universal truths about ourselves and the world.

You will meet your guide to be fitted for a pair of snowshoes or microspikes (if there isn't enough snow). This tour will take you snowshoeing under the night sky with a professional and local guide. During the gentle snowshoe, you will listen to stories shared around the world of the night sky. When we return from the snowshoe we will meet with our Indigenous friend for a fireside chat to listen to stories of the night sky from the Blackfoot perspective, hot beverages, and traditional Indigenous snacks.

This adventure begins a short distance from Castle Mountain Resort and makes a great evening event after enjoying the ski hill.

What To Expect

Castle Provincial Park

We will put on snowshoes, and introduce the evening with our expert and local guides, then we will hit the trails. Our guides will introduce you to night adventures and the magic that appears under the stars from a worldly perspective. Our snowshoe will be gentle and less than 5kms. We will head out to a night sky lookout and if it is a clear night, we will take some time to enjoy the stars without any light pollution. On full moon nights, it is more difficult to see the stars, but the night sky has a different story to tell. If the night sky is not clear, we will still be exploring and hope that our storytelling will help you envision a much bigger world outside of Earth. When we return from the snowshoe, we will have a fireside chat with a hot beverage and a traditional Indigenous snack. Stay tuned for some incredible stories from our friends from the Blackfoot Nation. While you listen to these stories, we hope you find meaning in how our stories from around the world connect us all.
