Your Guide

Jane Whitney’s passion for adventure and wild places has led her to become a seasoned wilderness leader.

As a certified professional Sea Kayak and Hiking guide, Jane has been guiding self-propelled wilderness expeditions in the Canadian Rockies, the High Arctic and Antarctic, Haida Gwaii, and Patagonia since the early 90’s. Her goal is to make you feel comfortable in the wilderness and inspired by the places you visit. Jane has an incredible array of stories from her decades of work, from leading a group of women on a ski traverse across Baffin Island, to riding her bike across the Tibetan plateau, to paddling the remote coast of southern Chile. She has called the Canadian Rockies home for over 30 years and instructs future guides in the industry when she is not guiding trips. Jane is fun to be with and has been lauded by many as a superb naturalist.

Environment

Hike Banff cherishs self-propelled trips, as traveling through the mountains under one’s own power promotes stewardship and appreciation for this beautiful planet of ours.

Caring for our environment is deeply embedded in Hike Banff’s core values. If we’re not sustaining the environment, we are not sustaining our society, our economy, or our selves and family.
