CMH Bobbie Burns Heli-Hiking

SUMMER HELI-HIKING AT CMH BOBBIE BURNS

In summer (mid-June to late-August), CMH Bobbie Burns becomes an alpine playground for heli-assisted hiking—where the helicopter isn’t a thrill add‑on, it’s the key to spending your days in the best terrain. Your group flies straight to high ridgelines, wildflower meadows, and glacier viewpoints, then hikes with a professional guide at a pace that matches your goals. If you want to dial up the adrenaline, Bobbie Burns is also home to two world‑class via ferrata routes that bridge hiking and climbing.

Back at the lodge, the vibe shifts from “big day out” to “mountain resort, but remote.” Expect chef‑prepared meals, a full‑service bar, and a recovery‑friendly amenity mix (hot tub, steam room/sauna, and snacks) that lets you wake up ready to go again. Add in the wine cellar, a swimming pond, and the sound of a mountain stream right outside, and you’ve got a rare combination: real backcountry access by day, and a polished lodge experience by night—exactly what makes CMH Bobbie Burns such a standout summer basecamp.

From the Mid‑Atlantic and Northeast, getting there is refreshingly straightforward: fly into Calgary International Airport, join the CMH ground transfer corridor to the helipad, then take a short helicopter flight into the lodge. CMH Mid-Atlantic keeps the whole plan tight—helping you choose the right trip length, line up flight windows, dial in packing and footwear, and arrive with realistic expectations for altitude, pace, and weather. The result: CMH Bobbie Burns feels less like a complicated expedition and more like a seamless, guided mountain vacation.
