Sleep Under the Stars ✨ Private Off-Grid Dome: a Forest Escape & Mountain Views
AURORASPHERE DOME
Peace & Quiet. By Design!
Experience glamping like never before in the AuroraSphere, a secluded, transparent dome nestled among the trees at Rocky Mountain Escape in Rock Lake Provincial Park.
Wake to the sunrise from your pillow. Fall asleep beneath a blanket of stars. If conditions are right, you may even witness the magical Northern Lights dancing overhead—all without leaving your bed.
Surrounded by wilderness and overlooking a scenic vista, the AuroraSphere offers complete privacy, breathtaking views and an unforgettable connection with nature.
A Unique Off-Grid Escape: Getting here is part of the Adventure. 4wd/Awd recommended.
The AuroraSphere has been thoughtfully designed to combine comfort with adventure.
Inside you'll find:
• Queen-size bed with luxury linens • Transparent dome for panoramic forest and night sky views • Incinerator toilet • Sink with non-potable water for washing dishes and hands • Drinking water provided • Solar lighting and AC • Curtains for added privacy and temperature control
Outside you'll enjoy:
• Private deck with spectacular views • Propane griddle for outdoor cooking • Propane fire pit table • Complimentary locally roasted Roasti pour-over coffee, tea, cooking oil, salt and pepper
Designed for Nature Lovers
The AuroraSphere is completely off-grid.
There is no Wi-Fi, no television and no cell service.
Instead, you'll find birdsong, fresh mountain air, wildlife, crackling campfires and some of the darkest skies in Alberta.
This is your chance to truly unplug, slow down and reconnect with nature.
Wildlife & Adventure
Set within Rock Lake Provincial Park, adjacent to Jasper National Park and the Willmore Wilderness, adventure begins the moment you arrive.
Hike directly from the property, explore nearby Rock Lake, photograph wildlife or simply relax on your private deck as deer, moose, birds and other wildlife pass through the forest.
Don't miss Hoff Ridge, a spectacular hike starting from our property and featured on AllTrails, offering incredible 360-degree mountain views.
Dark Sky Destination
The AuroraSphere was built for stargazing.
With virtually no light pollution, the night sky comes alive with thousands of stars, the Milky Way stretching overhead and, when nature cooperates, unforgettable displays of the Aurora Borealis.
Good to Know
• The dome is reached via a private 300-foot uphill forest trail from the parking area and is not accessible by vehicle.
• On warm sunny days, the transparent dome naturally heats up. Curtains and our solar-powered air conditioning system help maintain a comfortable indoor temperature.
• The AuroraSphere is designed for only two guests.
• No pets permitted.
Escape Somewhere Different
Whether you're celebrating a special occasion, planning a romantic getaway or simply looking to disconnect from everyday life, the AuroraSphere offers an experience unlike anywhere else.
Sleep beneath the stars.
Wake with the mountains.
Reconnect with nature.

About the host
Hosted by Julia Walker
Your hosts the 'Walkers' Gary & Julia. Emigrated to Canada from the North East of England in 2012 and have owned the 'Escape' since 2021. Off-grid hospitality trailblazers! Wild at heart with a soft spot for guest satisfaction.
Why they chose this property
Nestled in Alberta's foothills only 70km NW of Hinton. A place where proposals happen under the Aurora and stars. Customers meet Grizzlies on trail cams and so much more. Magic in the mountainous wilderness. Forested trails, dark skies, crackling fires & wildlife around. Nature at it's finest!
What makes this property unique
A peaceful slice of unplugged paradise. Our dome and cabins are more than just places to stay, they are story starters. Intentionally spaced apart for privacy. Never overlooked and never overcrowded. Say 'Yes' to Adventure and 'No' to cell signal. No shower in the dome. Just luxurious glamping not camping!!
