About ActiveAge Outings
Everything you need to know about our outings — who they're for, what's included, and how to join us in the Rockies.
Who It's For
Our outings are designed for adults 60+ who:
- Seek more movement, variety, connection, and time in nature
- Want to increase physical activity (hikes, nature walks, places of interest)
- Are curious and open to new experiences
- Value good company and meaningful conversations in a small group
- Feel comfortable in group outings
- Can get to the meeting point in Calgary
- Are looking for affordable, accessible nature and cultural outings
No experience required — just a willingness to try something new!
What's Included
- A detailed itinerary — so you know what we're doing, where we're going, and when coffee happens.
- Transportation from Calgary — car or minivan, depending on the size of our adventure crew.
- Experienced leader support — and certified guides when the adventure calls for one.
- First Aid-certified leaders + safety gear — first aid kit and satellite communication on every trip.
- Insured & police-checked leaders and guides — because you deserve to know who you're adventuring with.
- Interesting stops along the way — museums, historic sites, cafés, art galleries, and whatever else makes the day more interesting.
- Themed group conversations — because a good outing should give you something to talk about afterward, too.
Not Included

Entry tickets to museums, galleries, or other attractions (unless specified)
Meals purchased at cafes or restaurants
