ACC Adventures
Ready to Discover Amazing Adventures?
We believe mountaineering (in all its forms) provides significant mental and physical health benefits to participants and connects them with their mountain environments so that they’ll help to protect them. For this reason, ACC Adventures aims to grow and develop Canada’s mountaineering community, make it accessible to everyone, and to promote considerate, responsible, best practices amongst its members.

Where does your registration fee go?
For every participant on our camps and courses, $50 goes towards the ACC’s Leadership Fund. This fund provides subsidized leadership courses and resources for ACC Section volunteer trip leaders, who are so vital to the ACC at a grassroots level and the mountain community as a whole. Come on one of our camps or courses knowing a small part of your registration fee is securing the next generation of mountain leaders and the ACC’s future.
