Description

Explore Cochrane and the landscapes beyond with Sacred Earth Eco Tours, a private guiding experience led by local guide Eppo Eerkes. Pick-up happens right in Cochrane, making it easy to use the town as your base while heading out for a day shaped around your interests. Eppo draws on a filmmaking career, deep local connections, and firsthand experience in places ranging from grizzly country and the badlands to Indigenous cultural settings, bringing both context and access to the journey.

Depending on the experience you choose, your day might include wildlife watching in the foothills, scenic drives through the Rockies, hiking to alpine lakes and tea houses, exploring Waterton and the Frank Slide, paddling through the badlands, or visiting working ranch country and wild mustang landscapes along the eastern slopes. Sacred Earth Eco Tours also offers cultural experiences that connect travellers with Indigenous stories, traditions, and guides.

As a professional photographer, Eppo also helps guests capture the landscape and the experience along the way, adding another layer to the day. Ideal for travellers who want more than a standard sightseeing trip, this is a flexible, door-to-door way to experience the region with insight, access, and a strong sense of place.
