Bella Coola Heliskiing Tweedsmuir Park Lodge Description

Bella Coola Heliskiing and Heliboarding in small groups in BC.  Amazing terrain and convenient travel set Bella Coola Heliskiing apart.  Each trip begins with a half-day afternoon, and ends with a half-day morning. This makes travel easy and is a great way to ease into the heliskiing.  A maximum of 18 guests share a helicopter in groups of four or five.  The Tweedsmuir Lodge is set within the Tweedsmuir Provincial Park, BC.  Bella Coola Heliskiing rates include air fare from Vancouver.

Bella Coola Heliskiing Canada has some great advantages. The trips are designed to so that guests heliski a half day on each end.  Guests arrive in Vancouver the night before the trip begins. In the morning, guests fly to Bella Coola (the flight is included in the price), go through safety training, eat lunch and go heliskiing!  On the final day, guests heliski Canada in the morning and fly back to Vancouver in the afternoon.
