One of the stunning hikes in Canmore is the Upper Grassi Lakes trail and the Grassi lakes trail loop. It is a 3.2 kilometres trail (or 1.9 miles) and is great for hikers of all levels. During summers the waters are turquoise blue and it is stunning.
During winters, certain areas of the trail are still accessible and can be used for hiking.
Children can be taken on strollers and dogs are allowed (on lease). The Grassi Lakes is also a popular rock climbing area.

The bridge is remarkable and noted for its rare vertical end posts. At the top of the end posts, you will find plaques reading T. B. Co. 1880. From one end of the bridge, you can see stunning mountain views, and the beautiful Bow River flowing underneath.
There are branches where you can sit and relax or just walk along where the river flows. This historic bridge is meant for pedestrian traffic only.
Note: Do not try to jump off the bridge as it is not allowed. Fines are imposed if caught jumping.

Shopping
Canmore Main Street is less commercialized as compared to Banff’s, and we just love walking down the street stopping at cafes, and shops.
