Beautiful and varied hike up tot Piper Pass meadow. We took a shortcut (turning left off Elbow Pass Trail about a kilometre early) and bushwhacked for about two kilometres. I would recommend staying on the actual trai...

Year-round destination for hikers, scramblers, skiers and snowshoers. It can be done as a loop and the best look for views is to go clockwise. There are three high points, with the highest being in the middle loop, the s...
Trailhead: Shark Lake Trailhead. **Note: in winter this is considered backcountry, avalanche risk** You can do the loop either direction. I prefer to do the loop clockwise, as that way the scramble is on the way up ra...
Very steep uphills and downhills, you climb in only 3km. So you should be in good shape for soing this trail. Terrific views once you get on the ridge. You can see two valleys up there. Spot mountain goats, they tend to ...
About an hour of steady climbing but worth it for this little gem at the end. Incredibly beautiful, and fish jumping all over the place. Was quiet when I arrived at 10 but saw lots of people heading up on my way down. Ma...
Wear waterproof shoes, as there is a lot of creeks crossing. The last 3k are uphill, and in spring there is avalanche terrain so maybe you can't reach the pass. This happened to us, the last 48hs were snowing and there w...
From the Mt Shark trailhead follow signs Wateridge Lake - Karst Spring. It is an easy hike with just a few heightmeter. There are more challenging trails. But the nature is nice. The lake is beautiful and the spring real...
A strenuous hike up to one of the best views in Kananaskis. Starts to follow Upper Kananaskis lake and past the waterfall it branches left and starts the climb to Rawson Lake. Refresh yourself there and get ready for the...
A very enjoyable day. The first 5 km or so are easy to moderate. The last km is real scrambling and requires confidence up and down climbing on easy 5th class with exposure. The rock itself is generally very good. The c...
Great easy/moderate hike! We took our parents and our dog and they loved it. The trail starts out steep but well marked up to the Elbow Lake campground. Continuing around the lake, you turn right towards Mount Rae and tr...
Lost reception when batteries died on the way up. The track continues where I replaced them. For more accuracy, it may be worth using the way down. Great little trail for views. Hiking along a pretty good trail but once ...
An easy hike with Ben and Nick. Went to see all the water falls at troll falls as well as the old fire lookout on hummingbird plume.
Today starts out with a 10km walk on a concrete lane through the forest and under power lines to Canyon Campsite. From here you cross the Pocaterra Dam and then head back up into the bush once again on the HRT. The trail...
Today is the toughest day of the HRT. But it is also the best. With lots of breaks in the forest offering stunning views across the valley. Today you get your first view of Spray Lakes Reservoir and at the junction with ...
At 630 this morning I looked up from making my breakfast and coffee to see a momma grizzly and her cub running along the far side of the lake! They were being flushed out of the bush by a guy and his girlfriend driving b...
Birdwood Pass from Shark Road in Kananaskis Country. One way approximately 10 km with elevation gain of 600 m.
Excellent hike , couple of techical parts from lake 2-3, great to see the memorial plaque for the 13 lives lost !!
From: https://10hikes.com/canada/canmore-hikes/hike-king-creek-ridge/# This exciting, yet challenging hike seems easy on paper, but the steepness of the early ascent is deceptive. From the parking lot, walk out to H...
A pleasant hike until you get to the scree to make the summit. Don’t continue to follow this route. It’s off by quite a bit.
Up the pass was awesome walk, lateral down on scree slab, and then lots of big heavy rock down to the pass, trail is hard to find except for the last kilometer and a half through the trees
Gorgeous easy hike to a waterfalland through flower filled meadows. I forgot to start the map at the beginning so park and start at troll falls trailhead
To get back to the TCT you can backtrack the 1.5 km out of the campground or you can join the Great Divide Trail further down the lake. This will take you up through the forest for 4 km to Elk Pass where you will rejoin ...
A great hint to help you choose your outdoor gear and clothing!
