Neighbourhood
Quiet friendly neighborhood with forest all around. 10 min walk through the woods to quarry lake a popular locals swimming spot with the beach. Multiple trails right outside the back door. Take your pick from a mountain hike up Ha Ling, Grassi Lakes, or all levels of mountain biking single track to paved trails.
About 30 mins walk to get to downtown Canmore, with all its shops, quaint boutique stores, and a wide range of culinary restaurants.
Getting to my home
Having a car is necessary, there is no rail system from Calgary. There is an airporter shuttle service, but once you get to Canmore, we are a quiet neighbour just outside the main downtown. So it would be a hard walk with suitcases to our house. There are taxis in town and a local bus service.
Nearest airport
Calgary International Airport (YYC) is an hour and fifteen minutes from our house, and easy highway drive.
Getting around
You will need a car to get about. There is a transit bus stop a short walk from the house, that goes downtown and also connects to the Banff Roam transit system.
