The Ultimate Best friends Mountain Adventure
Grab your bestie and join us for a true 3 day mountain experience in Apex, BC!
Experience Details
Where?
We are going to be experiencing and exploring the best of Apex Mountain and Penticton, BC. Apex mountain is a ski resort in southwestern Canada, located in the Okanagan region on Beaconsfield Mountain, just west of Penticton. We will be staying in a beautiful luxury log cabin at the foot of Apex Mountain. Grab your best friend and escape to this one of kind luxury Cedar Log Home and experience a true mountain adventure!
We have hand picked the best that Apex and Penticton have to offer to fill 3 days of adventure, celebration and connection! From Skaha Lake to Skaha Bluff and the trails of Apex Mountain we are going to be challenging ourselves, supporting each other and truly immersing ourselves into a best friends weekend away.
What?
This experience includes a three night stay at a luxury log cabin on Apex Mountain. Friday evening we are greeted with a champagne toast and welcome celebrations as we settle into our accommodations. Saturday we start off with a 12-15km hike through Apex Mountain, then we head into town to jump on a Stand Up Paddle board! Don't worry if you are new to SUPs we will begin with a lesson before paddling on Skaha Lake. After our time on the lake we will head back to the cabin for a home cooked dinner, relaxing and a group pilates session. Sundays adventure on begins with a short hike to the Skaha Bluffs where we will be cheering for each other as we learn to rappel the bluffs! Celebrations continue with a group wine tour in the afternoon and our day will conclude with a group dinner in Penticton at one of the local eateries! Our final activity will be a sunrise hike on Monday morning, where we can reflect, celebrate and watch the beginning of a new day!
Our experience has been designed to challenge you and create connections in many different ways! We will be ascending and descending on some technical and non technical mountain terrain, stopping to take in spectacular views, pushing our limits with new perspectives and welcoming a new day with a sunrise on a summit. We are going to be talking all things female empowerment, mountain safety and adventure planning tools, including our BE AWARE Program, celebrating and supporting each other as we make it through this weekends adventures!
