Make your Day in the Mountains Memorable.

Looking for a holiday far from crowds?   Summit Reflections is located in Nelson, British Columbia, a place of natural beauty and mountain culture, surrounded by the majestic summits of the Selkirk and Purcell Mountains.  

We guide you on the best alpine hikes and climbs in the West Kootenays.  We offer day guiding and multi-day vacations in the mountains for beginning hikers to advanced mountaineers. You choose the level of challenge, there is a walk, hike or climb for everyone! 

Join us in the hiking program for a gentle interpretive walk, an alpine hike, heli-hiking or enjoy a women’s hiking retreat.  You could spot mountain goats, pikas or see sign of a bear’s last meal at Idaho Peak.  Savor the scent of sub alpine fir at Kokanee Park or wander upon a forest orchid approaching Jumbo Pass.   How about enjoying chocolate fondue from a summit or soaking in a hot springs? 

Go vertical in the climbing program for an instructional day of rock school, a guided alpine climb or custom design a mountaineering adventure.  Enjoy stunning views while hanging out in a 5.9 climbing crack in the Valhalla Mountains.  We create daily guided trips you won’t forget. 

Challenge yourself on a team building program  at a mountains skills leadership camp or with peers on a ropes challenge course.  Build skills and stronger teams, having fun!
