Burstall Pass is a popular summer hiking trail and a snowshoeing route in Kananaskis Country. It is conveniently located off the Smith Dorrien Trail and attracts many enthusiastic hikers. The hike takes you past several marshy lakes and streams before leading to a steep ascent to an alpine meadow. It culminates at a high mountain pass where you can enjoy stunning views of glaciated mountains.

If you plan to snowshoe in the winter, you need proper avalanche training, equipment, and knowledge. If you're unsure how to assess winter risks, you can hire a guide.
