The local arts community is quite active and there are several cozy galleries, museums, cafes and restaurants – all located in a 6 square block core area. Walking and cycling paths meander throughout the town – and a resident group of ducks stay year round.
Kananaskis Country- the best kept secret in the Canadian Rockies- is a provincial park network – and is the outdoor playground for many of us.
The 1988 winter Olympics left us a world class cross-country ski facility that also plays host to numerous competitions – World Cup Mountain Bike Race (July) – just to mention a few.
