Selkirk Mountain Experience

Selkirk Mountain Experience Selkirk Mountain Experience We offer world class skiing, hiking and climbing to our guests. Three times. This is reflected in our unbeatable TripAdvisor reviews.

National Geographic Adventure Magazine has rated us as one of the Best Adventure Travel Companies on Earth. During the summer months, we provide incomparable alpine hiking and climbing. The mountain goats, lush meadows and incredible views accompany guests during their stay. During the winter months we offer backcountry skiing in our stunning backyard, with 14 glaciers, 4 tree ski areas and 20 skiable summits in our private 94 square kilometer tenure. With thirty years of experience, Ruedi and Nicoline have mastered the art of hospitality in the high mountains. Guests are provided with every comfort one can reasonably expect to have in our environmentally sensitive, remote and helicopter accessed Durrand Glacier Chalet. With hot showers, private bedrooms, an Austrian chef, wireless internet and indoor plumbing, as well as fully certified, safety conscious and professional guiding. With our 5 stars rating, our guests have mentioned us as "exceeding expectations in every conceivable way", described our hiking as "European hiking without leaving Canada" and insisted that we are a "Must do’ Experience for backcountry skiers". With this said it is no wonder that well over half of guests return every season. Once you’ve skied our vast glaciers, dropped through our glades, walked our alpine meadows and stood on our remote, serene peaks… you'll know why. Please visit our website for more information.

Thank you Summer, you have been amazing.
Even though the smoke tortured the valleys, we were lucky enough to not be affected too much at the Chalet. We hiked every day of the summer! Thank you to all of our guests: you are the reason we want to keep sharing the Durrand Glacier Chalet with the world. You make each week different, and memorable. Shared experiences are always better!

Now it's time to slow down, and enjoy the quiet days of Fall!

Thank you guide Nick, for this beautiful photo!

Are you thinking about winter yet? ❄️

Our thoughts are starting to sway that way… just a little.
The anticipation of that first big snowfall: when will it be?

We’re not quite ready to say goodbye to summer, but we’d be lying if we said we weren’t winter-dreaming already.

Who has their 2027 winter trip booked?

Meet Tate 🥾

Tate has been part of the Selkirk Mountain Experience family for the last 7 summers, and trust us, you’ll know when Tate is around! Her bubbly energy radiates through the lodge, and her hardworking attitude never goes unnoticed.

Tate makes her way over from Banff each summer to be on of our trusted hiking guides. She only took three days off this season. That kind of dedication says a lot about how much SME means to her, It's her second home.

One of our favourite things about our team is that hard work doesn’t always have to feel like work. Thank you for being silly together!

Today we are honoring our water, the streams, the waterfalls, and the glaciers. We are so lucky to be able to enjoy the abundance of water in BC. This must be the purest form of drink water you can find on this planet.

SME Family - the Series

Another member of our family is Ben, one of the familiar faces you'll meet as a hiking guide at the Durrand Glacier Chalet. He's been sharing his passion for the mountains with our guests for the past three years, leading our guest through the stunning alpine terrain.

Ben is originally from the UK (who doesn't love a good English accent!). He moved to Revelstoke four years ago and has fully embraced mountain life.

If he could choose any superpower, it would be the ability to fly—mostly so he wouldn't have to hike or climb back down the mountains he regularly conquers.

His love for hiking began in his younger years, thanks to the adventures with his dad and brother in the French Alps and the mountains of Wales. Of course, when he wasn't out exploring the trails, you could usually find him being the cheeky chap featured in the last photo… perhaps after enjoying one drink too many!

Say hi to Ben when you see him!

Another beautiful few weeks in the books!
The snow has melted out, and the flowers are poking their heads out, wanting to say hi to our beloved Guests. We are thoroughly enjoying the summer so far, and by the smiles on everyone's faces, it looks like our guests do too!

Working as the logistics manager in town, I just get to see the groceries I sent up. Somehow those groceries turn into these beautiful plates of balanced meals, created by our chef Carl.

For your inspiration and imagination, we have the following dishes:
1- Chicken with Pea puree, lentils and baby squash
2 - Sushi stack
3 - Raspberry Almond cake with Red w**e poached pear and lemon curd (I'm hungry now!)
4 - Squash and ricotta rotolo crip, with sage brown butter.
🍜🍙🥗🤤
Do you know what Rotolo is?!
Thank you Carl!

Ps: Chef turns out to be an excellent photographer too!
