The headwaters of the Bow River are located in the Canadian Rockies north of Banff National Park. The river forms the outflow of Bow Lake. This is fed by the meltwater of the Bow Glacier. The Bow River initially flows 80 km south-southeast through the mountains. He then turns east and passes through the small towns of Banff and Canmore. At the foot of the Rocky Mountains, the river is dammed up to Ghost Lake. The Bow River passes through the city of Cochrane and then flows through the conurbation of Calgary. It continues in a predominantly easterly direction through the prairie landscape of Alberta
