Some people believe that “good enough” will do when it comes to backcountry food. We respectfully disagree!
The Yamnuska Backcountry Kitchen operates from our commercial facility in Canmore, Alberta, Canada. We offer a full range of backcountry food services and a wide variety of packaged-to-order dehydrated dinner entrées prepared by our professional kitchen team.

Backcountry Camping & Hut Trips – Custom Menus
Planning a single or multi-day menu that meets the tastes, provides the calories, and delivers the nutrition needed by groups and individuals while backcountry camping, is complex. It requires careful consideration of the season, expected weather, and the activities planned.

We will customize our menu for your tastes & diet needs, and for the calories needed to meet the physical demands of your planned backcountry adventure.
