Food scene

A “French-inspired bakery with a Canadian flair”, they serve the most delicious croissants, danish, bread and pastries. Their Almond Croissants are the best in town. They also have espresso-based coffee and a great selection of teas. We always stop by and bring a box of goodies home.

Best bagel sandwiches we have ever had! The long lineups over the busy weekend days are totally worth the wait. We recommend the BCLT on jalapeno cheddar bagel with their house made herb and garlic dip. Gluten free and vegan options available :)

This is one of the many chef-driven restaurants located at a not-so-busy part of Canmore. The place exudes both a formal vibe with its fancy interiors, but also an inviting atmosphere with its friendly service and casual fare.

A fantastic 27km link from Canmore to Banff, that runs alongside the #1 Highway and wraps around Mount Rundle and Tunnel Mountain, with plenty of vistas along the way. We recommend renting ebikes to makes this return journey that much more enjoyable!

Discover this 7.2km hike, considered moderate to hard route, taking around 4hours to complete. It has an elevation gain of 748m and you’ll be standing at over 2000m. We have hiked this in the past, last was when our eldest boy was 9 weeks old and had to change a dirty diaper at the top 😂

One of the most picturesque lakes in the world! If you can get there to see the sunrise hitting the peaks in the distance you will probably not experience a more beautiful sight. Only accessible by Roam transit from lake Louise as of 2023, and only open in the summer months.

Beautiful hike especially in fall when the larches are turning yellow. A moderate hike that’s an hour drive into kananaskis country, very popular so parking isn’t always guaranteed.

Takakkaw Falls is a waterfall located in Yoho National Park, near Field, British Columbia in Canada. The falls have a total height of 373 metres (1,224 ft), making them the second tallest waterfall in Canada. The main drop of the waterfall has a height of 254 metres (833 ft). "Takakkaw" translates to "magnificent” in Cree. The falls are fed by the meltwater of the Daly Glacier, which is part of the Waputik Icefield. The glacier keeps the volume of the falls up during the warm summer months, and they are a tourist attraction, particularly in late spring after the heavy snow melts, when the falls are at peak condition.

Great in and out trail. Minimal elevation gain. Kid and dog friendly. You will cross over the creek 8 times, and learn about the flood in 2013 that shaped this landscape.
