About Us...

Canadian Wilderness School & Expeditions is a small independent company of guiding professionals and educators that specializes in outdoor educational programs, group trips and extended expeditions. The C.W.S.E under the name C-W School has been operating since 1972 in Canada and Alaska. Our wilderness expeditions include many virgin runs of Canadian Rivers, virgin treks, and alpine expeditions to 5000m mountains (including Mt. McKinley and Mt. Logan).


We call the awe-inspiring wilderness and the vast beauty of the Canadian Rockies and the Canadian North our home. It is were we live, where we come from and we would like to share our knowledge and experiences with all those interested in learning and experience the magic of the Canadian outdoors.

Our trips are solely organized, developed, and executed by the Canadian Wilderness School & Expeditions. The C.W.S.X extends itself in also providing educational outdoor related programs that focus on developing individual as well as interpersonal skills. The C.W.S.X does this by designing and developing programs, expeditions, and tours in which all members of a group learn to communicate, contribute, take responsibility and even lead different aspects of an expedition. The C.W.S.X also trains each member with the necessary skills required for each one of our trips.

The C.W.S.X will also occasionally offers special or unique expedition events to previous clients or trained and experienced organizations, regarding unique trips, expeditions or virgin runs of certain rivers.
