FAQs: Splitboarding in Alberta
What should I know about Splitboarding Alberta?
The Canadian Rocky Mountains cover a small but significant portion of southwestern Alberta, which is where all splitboarding trips in the province take place.
Away from Banff National Park and the Wapta Traverse, which are two of the most popular splitboarding destinations, there are plenty of other incredible spots to explore as well.
Chief among them is Jasper National Park, which sits just to the north of Banff. Heading up to the summit of Mount Brazeau or Pyramid Mountain are two of the most popular options in the park. However, there are plenty of other parts to explore as the park is massive and full of a diverse array of mountains and valleys.

oleg
That was a wonderful ski-tour experience. Everything was well organized, and there was good communication.The choice of daily spots was well planned based on avalanche safety and natural beauty. Special thanks to local guides (Jason and Tamara) for all their efforts and passion, which made this trip a very special experience. I definitely look forward to do another ski-tour trip next year or summer adventure with Jeff or his guides.
