Canmore is part of the year - round playground which is known as The Canadian Rockies. Activities are as varied as the seasons.

In the winter, people go to the mountains not only to ski on the many challenging courses, but also to enjoy such activities as ice climbing, caving, dog sledding, snowboarding and sleigh rides.

For the sports enthusiast, summer is a time to enjoy such activities as fishing, climbing, cycling, whitewater rafting and kayaking, and horseback riding. Of course, any summer vacation in the Rockies would not be complete without a couple of rounds of golf in any of the scenic golf courses.

Canmore and area is known for its cultural events as well as family activities, concerts and festivals.
