アルバータのおすすめツーリングルート

Along the Spur Line Trail near Canmore Pond, you’ll pass the Altered Ground public art installation by local sculptor Tony Bloom. The steel sculpture was installed in 2020 and draws inspiration from the layered rock formations of the surrounding Rocky Mountains. The Spur Line Trail itself is a wide, mostly gravel multi-use path for walking and cycling that connects several neighbourhoods in Canmore.

Situated just minutes from the town of Banff, Cascade Ponds is a popular picnic and walking area at the base of Cascade Mountain. A network of small bridges connects several ponds, creating easy loops with stunning reflections of the surrounding peaks. It’s a favourite spot for families and photographers, especially in early morning or evening light when the water is calm and mirror-like.

The Barry Erskine Bridge spans over the Elbow River in Weaselhead Flats Natural Environment Park and is named after former city councillor Barry Erskine, who was an advocate for environmental protection and the preservation of the nature reserve. The bridge is an excellent viewpoint to watch wildlife.

A beautiful spot just outside of Banff. Great for bike rides, hikes, paddles, etc...

Walk along the Bow River to the Bow River Falls lookout point. There you'll have a good view of the rapids. The trail is signposted.

Well-marked path with art objects that have been cleverly integrated into the natural surroundings.

I'd rather not recommend it, otherwise even more people will come here. No, really, it's fantastic.

highly recommended!
