The great Alberta outdoors
Enjoying the outdoors in Calgary during the summer is easy. Walk the trails along the Bow River, take on the nearly 15-kilometre Glenmore Reservoir Loop or discover hiking trails in Nose Hill Park, one of Canada’s largest urban parks. And of course, the beautiful Rocky Mountains are less than an hour’s drive away, where opportunities for hiking, camping and outdoor fun are abundant.
Lace up your hiking boots and head up Sulphur Mountain with some friends, or if you’re up for more of a challenge, summit Ha Ling Peak for the incredible views overlooking the town of Canmore.
One day won’t be enough in this wonder-filled outdoor playground so plan to camp and spend the night among the stars, trees and mountains. Check out Bow Valley Campground for great valley views or go deeper into the wilderness at Quaite Valley Backcountry Campground.
