Phase I of KNS opened on March 2, 2018. The hours of operation are 9am – 9 pm, 365 days a year.

All guests have access to three outdoor pools, four steam and sauna cabins, and a signature massage menu. Two Trees Bistro (located in the main Spa Lodge) serves refreshments, snacks, light dishes, sharing plates and alcoholic beverages to guests.

To receive the latest progress updates, we invite you to sign up for the Kananaskis Nordic Spa newsletter using the form located at the bottom of this page.

We will introduce an additional spa area (phase II), which will feature a secondary lodge, the ‘Relaxation Lodge’, a fourth outdoor pool, heated hammocks, and a haman-style exfoliation room. This expected for late 2018. Stay tuned for updates!

Kananaskis Nordic Spa is located in a woodland setting, behind the Delta Lodge Kananaskis Hotel. To get to us via car, take the Kananaskis Trail/Highway 40 South Highway from the TransCanada Highway, turning right at the Kananaskis Village/Nakiska Road intersection. Travel 1.0 km, turn left and proceed up the hill to Kananaskis Village. Follow posted directions to the Delta Lodge at Kananaskis. Driving time from Calgary International Airport is approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes. On-site parking is available.

We are open 365 days a year, rain, snow and/or shine. Regular hours are 9am to 9pm.

The outdoor pools at KNS are either hot, warm, or cold – and you’ll want to cycle through them all to get the full hydrotherapy experience. KNS has two hot pools, two warm pools, and one cold pool.

• Hot Pool + Elements Pool: Celsius 35 – 40 ºC | Fahrenheit 95- 104 ºF
• Gathering Pool + Reflection Pool: Celsius 32 – 38 ºC | Fahrenheit 90 – 100 ºF
• Cold Plunge Pool: Celsius 5-10 ºC | Fahrenheit 41-50 ºF

At Kananaskis Nordic Spa, we honour a same-day return policy for our guests, but please note, this is based on availability at any time.  Once guests have vacated the spa facility, they are welcomed to return that same day, providing we have the space available –  and there is no waiting list at that time.  All spa users must check-out at the reception desk and return their robe, slippers and locker key before every exit.

As a guest of the spa, you are welcome to stay with us as long as you like (during regular hours of course!). Wind down, reset and let your mind and body achieve complete relaxation. Kananaskis Nordic Spa supports independent rejuvenation on your own terms and getting the most out of the hydrotherapy experience — and we don’t think there should be a time limit on that. To be Nordic, is to be good to yourself, and to forget the notion of time for a while.

Yes, absolutely! The spa is open to day guests, as well as overnight guests of the Pomeroy Kananaskis Mountain Lodge. Access to the Spa Lodge from the hotel is available via the pedestrian bridge. Guests will check in at our reception desk, located close to the entrance. Please note that access to Kananaskis Nordic Spa is on a first-come, first-served basis during all operational hours.

Access to Kananaskis Nordic Spa is on a first-come, first-served basis during all operational hours, across all seasons. Reservations cannot be made for spa access alone.

The nature of our circuit using hot and cold therapy to stimulate the body has been known to increase blood pressure and circulation. We would encourage all expectant mothers to seek advice from their medical practitioner prior to using our facilities.

Kananaskis Nordic Spa is an adults-only (18+) facility, however, The Pomeroy Kananaskis Mountain Lodge has several babysitting and childcare options for our spa guests with children. Please check https://lodgeatkananaskis.com/ for the latest information.

Please ensure that you do not leave any valuables in the lockers. We cannot guarantee the safety of your personal belongings.
