Food Scene

Two blocks from our house, good food, mountain ambiance, amazing views. You can't beat sitting on the deck enjoying a drink or a meal on a sunny day! It gets busy so recommend reservations.

Crazy Weed is a funky, higher end place with great food and grass growing on the roof. http://crazyweed.ca. A fancy, not-so-fancy Canmore dining experience that invites dinner in x-country ski gear, impromptu wine tastings, and lots of fun. Reservations recommended.

Parks & Nature

The trailhead for this beautiful hike is two blocks from our home. Great for short walk with amazing mountain views, or you can venture further for some great hiking. It's always a good idea to bring along bear spray, water, a snack and some clothing layers - weather changes quickly in the mountains!

Climbing Tunnel Mountain (also called Sleeping Buffalo Mountain) in Banff is a moderate and beautiful hike. About 40 minutes up at a comfortable pace, the views are incredible in every direction. Remember to always bring a few layers of clothing and a water bottle. https://www.banff.com/banff-hiking/tunnel-mountain/
