Rustic Isolation
Near the summit of one of the highest mountain passes in Canada accessible by road you'll find the Hilda Creek hostel.  Nestled amongst the stunted trees of the upper subalpine, this hostel is surrounded by mountain peaks, glaciers and icefields.  Cyclists weary from a long and difficult ascent up the road to 2000 metres elevation will find this hostel a welcome stop on their route - but if you are planning to visit, please plan in advance!

This hostel is not staffed, has limited services (no running water, electricity or telecommunications) and is accessible only by key access system. Not for the faint of heart, hostelling here requires knowledge and application of backcountry hut procedures and ethics. To find out more about this system and what you need to be prepared, read our Key Access Information.
