What sets Métis Crossing apart for corporate retreats isn't just the setting; it's what happens when you step outside the meeting room.

Our cultural experiences are unlike anything you'll find at a conventional venue. Paddle into the Past takes groups out onto the North Saskatchewan River, the same trade routes that shaped this land and its people.

You're not hearing history, you're living it.

Even our on-site spa goes deeper than relaxation. Our team shares the teachings behind each practice, why they matter, where they come from, and how to carry them into everyday life.

This is what it looks like when a corporate retreat actually means something.

Indigenous tourism in Canada is growing, and for good reason.

One in three travellers is now actively seeking authentic Indigenous experiences.

At Métis Crossing, that means more than just a visit. It means storytelling, relationship building, and sharing a living culture in a way that is community-led and rooted in respect.

For our team, this work is both personal and professional. It's about being a bridge, between past and present, and between Indigenous and non-Indigenous perspectives.

They look like something that landed quietly in the trees. 🌲

Tucked into the landscape at Métis Crossing, our Sky Watching Domes are unlike anywhere else you'll sleep in Alberta.

By day, they sit nestled among the aspens. By night, that transparent ceiling opens up to a sky full of stars, or, if the conditions align, the northern lights dancing overhead.

Private. Spacious. Completely one of a kind.

Step inside and you'll find more than comfortable rooms and river views.

The Lodge sits beside our Cultural Gathering Centre, where Métis history, art, and tradition come alive, from the red river cart that carried families across the prairies to the Métis flag that has always stood for who we are as a people.

Some moments stop you completely. This is one of them. 🦬

The white bison at Métis Crossing's Visions, Hopes and Dreams Wildlife Tour is not something you forget easily. But this experience is about more than the animals; it's about what they mean.

Guided by experienced Métis guides and traditional knowledge-keepers, the tour is designed to take you deeper into Métis heritage, its past, its present, and its future.

You'll connect to the Métis way of life through shared practices, traditions, and foods. You'll learn by being present on the land. And you'll leave with something harder to name but easy to feel, a new appreciation for this place, its wildlife, and the history you now share a small part of.

Booking required. Book your tour here: www.metiscrossing.com/things-to-do/signature-experience/visions-hopes-and-dreams-at-metis-crossing-wildlife-tour/

Métis Crossing is for every industry, and we mean that.

From associations and charities to oil and gas, insurance, medical, and education, we're looking to welcome corporate groups from every sector within a three-hour range of our doors.

The goal is simple: show organizations what a corporate gathering can truly feel and look like when it's rooted in culture, connection, and a setting unlike anything else.

Once we've built that foundation close to home, we're ready to extend that reach across the country.

Not all getaways are created equal.

At Métis Crossing, you're not just booking a room, you're stepping into a living cultural destination where sustainability, connection, and the natural world come together.

Sleep under the stars in our sky watching domes, where you can lie in bed and watch the aurora dance overhead. There's really nowhere else quite like it.
