We offer you complete flexibility when deciding on the details of your stay.

First, choose your length of stay:

Unlike many other backcountry lodges, at Callaghan Lodge you can choose to stay for a single night, a week, or anything in between! At only 1.5 hours from Vancouver, a trip to Callaghan Country makes for a fabulous weekend getaway - weekends do sell out though, so book early!

Next, choose your accommodation style:

OPTION 1: STANDARD ROOMS

There are five standard rooms located on the third floor. Three of the rooms feature queen beds and two come with twin beds. Guests in these rooms share two bathrooms and a shower room. We offer great group discounts (ski-in / ski-out) on these rooms!

OPTION 2: SUPERIOR ROOMS

There are two larger superior 'hotel-style' rooms (each with a queen bed) located on the second floor of the lodge. Each superior room has a private bathroom and a small deck.

OPTION 3: SOLITUDE SUITE

Our finest room is the the deluxe Solitude Suite, which features a bedroom (with a queen bed), ensuite, private living room (with pull-out sofa), loft (with pull-out sofa and two twin bunks), and a large private deck. The Solitude Suite can be booked for 2 - 8 people, and for six or more (ski-in / ski-out) you can get a great group discount!

Finally, choose whether you would like a Ski-In / Ski-Out package (best value) or an All-Inclusive package (full service):

OPTION 1: SKI-IN / SKI-OUT

It is a 12.5km or a 13.5km ski to Callaghan Lodge from the base, depending on which access trail you take. The Callaghan Mainline trail (13.5km) is an intermediate level ski and Wild Spirit trail (12.5km) is more advanced. The elevation gain from the base to the lodge is 560m (1,850').

The average time to ski in is 3 hours and the average time to ski out is 1.5 hours (it's almost all downhill on the way out!) Believe it or not, strong athetic types have been known to ski up in just over 1 hour and out in 30 minutes!!

No matter which trail you take, skiing to Callaghan Lodge is a lot of fun. Pack a lunch, bring your camera and make a day of it! Enjoy spectacular views, stunning old-growth forest, frozen lakes...and the satisfaction of knowing that you did it!!

Ski-In / Ski Out packages include:

  • Accommodation
  • All meals (apres-ski appetizers and 4-course dinner on Day  1, continental breakfast and bagged lunch on Day 2) and non-alcoholic beverages (coffee, tea, milk, hot chocolate, juice)
