About
ADVENTURES FOR WILDERNESS
Adventures for Wilderness is Alberta Wilderness Association’s annual program to engage Albertans in wilderness conservation. In AWA’s 55th year (2020) we reinvented our previous signature event, Climb for Wilderness, to help inspire people to create adventures and learn more about wilderness and wildlife.
We believe an Adventure can be anything from climbing a mountain, to walking by the river, to enjoying the beauty of nature in your own backyard. Created by people who care about wilderness and wildlife we expect to have adventures that will cover the province and perhaps beyond. We have more than 7,000 members across Canada.
Dedicated to the conservation of wilderness and the completion of a protected areas network, Alberta Wilderness Association is a voice for the environment. Since 1965, AWA has inspired communities to care for Alberta’s wild spaces through awareness and action. AWA is a non-profit, federally registered, charitable society.
We hope you will consider doing at least one of the following:
- Become a Coordinator of an Adventure
- Join an Adventure as a Participant
- Sponsor an Adventure

Alberta Wilderness Association works to Defend Wild Alberta through Awareness and Action by inspiring communities to care. This mission is as vital, relevant and necessary as it ever was. AWA is dedicated to protecting our wild spaces and helping create a world where wild places, wildlife and our environment don’t need protecting.
