Direct Transfers to Kananaskis Lodges, Nakiska and the Nordic Spa
Red Mile Limousine picks you up anywhere in Calgary — a downtown hotel, your home or the office — and drives you directly to Pomeroy Kananaskis Mountain Lodge, Nakiska Ski Resort, the Kananaskis Nordic Spa or any address in Kananaskis Country. No shared passengers and no shuttle stops: the vehicle is reserved for your group from pickup to drop-off.
Where We Drive in Kananaskis Country
Most Calgary pickups are heading to one of four places. Your chauffeur drops you at the door — the lodge entrance, the ski area or your cabin — not at a shuttle stop.
The main resort in Kananaskis Village and a regular venue for corporate retreats and conferences. Drop-off at the lodge entrance.
The closest major ski resort to Calgary. Skis and boot bags travel inside the vehicle, and the return can be timed around your last run.
At Pomeroy Kananaskis Mountain Lodge. Book the return with the outbound trip so nobody has to drive home after the pools.
Kananaskis Country Golf Course, Barrier Lake, Peter Lougheed Provincial Park trailheads and private cabins or vacation rentals.
