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.

Protecting our Natural Spaces

Subscribe to the ACC Dispatch newsletter to stay in the know.​

We appreciate that the lands known today as Canada are home to the enduring presence of all First Nations and Métis people, and the Inuit and we acknowledge the past, present, and future generations of these Nations who continue to lead us in stewarding this land, as well as honour their knowledge and cultural ties to this place. The Alpine Club of Canada’s head office is located in the traditional lands of Treaty 7, which is comprised of the Stoney Nakoda Nations of Wesley, Chiniki, and Bearspaw; three Nations of the Blackfoot Confederacy: the Piikani, Kainai, and Siksika; the Mountain Cree; and the Tsuu T’ina of the Dene people. This territory is also shared with the Métis Nation of Alberta, Region III. Before the signing of Treaty 7, and prior to the establishment of provincial boundaries, this region was also used by the Ktunaxa and the Maskwacis people.
