At Last Frontier Heliskiing, 2026 packages start from $12,440 CAD for a 5-day trip at Ripley Creek and $14,010 CAD for a 5-day trip at Bell 2 Lodge, with 7-day options also available.
Q: What is included in a heliskiing package price?

Alcoholic beverages, massages, and extra vertical are typically additional costs.
Q: Is heliskiing worth the cost compared to resort skiing?
Heliskiing offers access to remote, untracked terrain that is not available at any ski resort. The cost reflects the helicopter access, small group sizes, professional mountain guides, and an all-inclusive lodge experience. For experienced skiers looking for deep powder and untouched terrain, many consider it a once-in-a-lifetime experience that is well worth the investment.
Q: Are there ways to reduce the cost of a heliskiing trip?
Low-season packages offer reduced rates, and choosing a shorter trip duration can help lower the total cost. Booking as part of a larger group for a private tour can reduce the per-person price. The Canadian dollar exchange rate may also work in favour of international visitors.
Q: How far in advance should I book a heliskiing trip?
Booking well in advance is recommended, especially for peak-season dates. Popular dates can sell out months ahead. Early booking may also give you more flexibility in choosing your preferred lodge, trip duration, and travel dates.
