Activities

 

At Calabogie Peaks, the adventure activities designed specifically for you and your team exist in a realm far beyond standard teambuilding activities. The “Good Nature” of our custom adventures are so specialized they are not available anywhere else in Ontario.

 

Situated between the shores of Calabogie Lake and our ski hill on Dickson Mountain, we have the ideal setting to play out numerous scenarios to your group based on the philosophy that people learn best by doing. Our Low Ropes Challenge Course and “Squamish” climbing wall provide a group learning experience like no other. Coupled with the miles of mountain bike trails and pristine lakefront we provide a venue for creative learning that will be the highlight of your event.

 

Our experienced and trained staff will guide you with ease through activities that will develop
increased flexibility, motivation, creativity, trust and communication. We are all kids at heart so let's take the learning out of the boardroom and back to the playground.

 

Programs are interchangeable and are best customized to your specific group and the length of your stay.

 

We encourage our guests to mix business with pleasure! Calabogie Peaks Resort can provide leisure activities for your conference in any season. Take to the links on our resort-style 9 hole golf course. Wind your way along the river on one of the canoes or kayaks. Ride the chair lift and experience the “Festival of Colours” in the fall. Tour through our mountain bike park. Why not try snowboarding or learn to carve on those new carving skis! Take the challenge of the Low Ropes Course or Climbing Wall and let the successes and confidence gained here increase creativity and communication in your work place.
