This section of the Trans Canada Trail passes through Canmore, offering a journey through both the town’s history and its mountain landscape. Along the route you’ll see reminders of Canmore’s coal mining past, modern neighbourhoods, and areas connected to the 1988 Winter Olympics, when nearby trails hosted cross-country skiing events. The multi-use path is open year-round and used for walking, hiking, cycling, and cross-country skiing in winter. Near downtown, the trail also passes a pavilion celebrating the volunteers and communities who helped build the Trans Canada Trail.
