As summer approaches, there is a good chance that you’ll be chomping at the bit to get back to nature. Sure, shopping and restaurants are great, but sometimes you just want to be surrounded by tall, green trees or walking on a scenic footpath. If that’s the case, then be sure to check out Canmore’s many beautiful and diverse hiking trails.

If lakeside hikes are what you’re into, then be sure to check out the Grassi Lake trail! Hang on, though, before you lock into that one – we have options! If you would prefer canyons and pictographs (that’s right, pictographs!), then be sure to give a look to Grotto Canyon.

With beautiful hikes of varying lengths and difficulty, everyone will find something to enjoy. For a list of hikes in the Canmore area, visit http://www.tourismcanmore.com/explore/walk-hike-bike/hiking-trails/.
