Tourism Canmore
Canmore has enviable geographic placement. Located only 1.5 hours west of Calgary’s International Airport, 5 minutes East of Banff National Park (20 minutes to the town site of Banff ), and virtually nestled into the northwest corner of Kananaskis Country, which is home to a multitude of Provincial (equivalent of state parks in the U.S.) and Wild-land Parks.
 In Canmore, when we invite you to “do more, play more, and live more” we mean every word. The year round inventory of activities is formidable to say the least, not that you necessarily have to do anything once you get here, for you see while we are climactically northern, there is an almost southern hemisphere quality to the pace of living; a quiet confidence coupled with a zest for living.
Included in the overwhelming inventory list of attractive pursuits is Great Golf, Mountain Biking, Whitewater paddling/rafting, Heli sightseeing, Horseback riding, Caving, Climbing, Bird watching, Fly-Fishing,guided interpretive hikes and wildlife watching, Dog Sledding, Snow Shoeing, Cross Country Skiing at the Olympic Nordic Centre, and access to 5 amazing mountains for Alpine Skiing.
A unique feature of Canmore’s repertoire of available activities is that all pursuits can be undertaken in the care or under the auspices of a professional guide outfitting company.
Be warned - our approach to living is infectious. Join us!
