We would like to welcome you to one of the most beautiful fishing spots in the world.
Nestled in the heart of the Canadian Rockies, Fortress Lake Fly Fishing Retreat offers an unparalleled escape into one of the world's most breathtaking wilderness areas. Located within a UNESCO World Heritage Site, our retreat is surrounded by towering peaks, lush forests, and the crystal-clear waters of Fortress Lake. Fortress Lake Fly Fishing Retreat is tucked away in a stunning, remote valley of the Canadian Rockies and is dominated by peaks towering a mile directly overhead and glaciers in a 360 degree “Fortress”.​

​Home to some of the largest brook trout on the planet, Fortress Lake is a dream destination for trophy anglers. ​
Our retreat provides full-service lodge accommodations and a semi-guided fishing experience, ensuring both comfort and adventure in this pristine wilderness. Beyond world-class fishing, the Fortress Lake valley is a backcountry paradise for hikers and kayakers. The lake’s 25 km perimeter offers stunning panoramic views, and nearby trails invite exploration. Located in Hamber Provincial Park, British Columbia, Fortress Lake is part of the Canadian Rocky Mountains UNESCO World Heritage Site and sits near Jasper, Banff, and Lake Louise. This remote retreat is accessible by helicopter, making it a truly exclusive and unforgettable experience.
