Fall In Canmore
As summer slowly bids farewell and the air becomes crisper, Canmore, nestled in the heart of the Canadian Rockies, transforms into a magical wonderland during the fall season.
5 Fall outdoor adventures in Canmore
If you're looking to immerse yourself in the beauty of the fall season, here are some must-try outdoor activities in Canmore that will leave you in awe of nature's splendour:
Larch Hikes
In mid-September, Kananaskis becomes adorned with golden larches, unique needled trees that turn the landscape into a picturesque masterpiece. From Mt. Lorette Ponds to Chester Lake and Burstall Pass, there are various hiking trails to choose from, each offering its own perspective of this stunning seasonal phenomenon. Visit Tourism Canmore Kananaskis to find a complete list of the best larch hikes. Be sure to plan your hike early in the fall, as the larches shed their needles by late October.
Helicopter Tours
For a bird's-eye view, take to the skies with Alpine Helicopter Tours. Soar above the clouds and witness the golden hues of the larches intermingling with the evergreens, sparkling glacial rivers, and the majestic Rockies stretching towards the vast Alberta skies. It's a breathtaking experience that will leave you with unforgettable memories.
Float on the bow river
To truly immerse yourself in the fall colours, a leisurely rafting trip on the Bow River is a must. As you glide along the gentle currents, you'll be treated to a mesmerizing display of fall foliage lining the riverbanks. With Canmore Raft Tours, beginners can take on this adventure with ease, enjoying the tranquillity and beauty that surrounds them.
Bike The Legacy Trail
The Legacy Trail offers a splendid 22-kilometre pathway connecting Canmore and Banff. As you pedal along, you'll be rewarded with sweeping views of the fall landscape. The trail closes in mid-October, so make sure to embark on this journey before the season bids adieu. Rent an e-bike or take advantage of our free fat tire bikes, available exclusively to guests at the Solara Resort through our Stay® | Well Amenities.
Horseback Riding
Exploring the Kananaskis area on horseback is a fantastic way to connect with nature during the fall season. The rhythmic sound of hooves on the trails enhances the experience as you ride amidst the vibrant colours and crisp mountain air. Boundary Ranch provides a variety of tours to experience trail riding in the Rockies.
