Self-drive

 If you like the freedom and independence of two hands on the wheel, you can drive yourself to the helipad or lodge. Self-drivers should be comfortable and equipped to drive in varied conditions on mountain roads. You’ll find detailed driving instructions and Google Maps locations for each lodge/helipad below. Parking is it at driver’s own risk. 


Private Flights

 

By airplane

We work with a partner charter airline and can easily arrange a private flight for your group to the airport nearest your CMH lodge. Note: several of our lodges have private airstrips nearby if you want to fly your own plane. However, we suggest speaking with our transportation team before making those arrangements as winter weather at the airstrips can affect those options.

By helicopter

Want to get to the lodge faster? Skip the bus ride by booking a direct charter helicopter flight, straight from the airport to the lodge. Request a quote and more information from our team.  

 

Early Departure?

Have you got an early flight home? If our regularly scheduled transportation doesn’t get you to the airport in time, we offer an early departure service on the last day of a trip.
