Backcountry Huts & Cabins

Backcountry Huts & Cabins

Looking at our maps you will find an impressive collection of backcountry huts and cabins, with clearly labelled huts, cabins, warming shelters, lodges and resorts. Our industry-leading road and trail coverage shows you the best route to your hut or cabin, and our ultra-detailed topographic maps with contours, relief and shading provides you with a clear picture of the terrain around your shelter. Mapbooks, GPS Maps, the Backroad Navigator app and our BRMB Canada Web Map include written descriptions of backcountry huts and cabins complete with cabin size, amenities, directions, reservation info and more. For digital products, these huts and cabins are georeferenced and searchable, while our Mapbooks contain an easy-to-use Adventure index to help you find the exact hut or cabin you are looking for.

Many of the backcountry huts and cabins labelled on our maps are supplemented with detailed written descriptions compiled by our team of outdoor writers and researchers. These descriptions include information on access, size, amenities, contact information, applicable fees, reservations and more. We also include tips on how to have a safe and fun adventure, and Mapbook users will find that our listings are easily referenced to the maps found in the front half of the book.
