Canmore Nordic Centre

The Canmore Nordic Centre hosted the Nordic events at the 1988 Winter Olympics. It remains a top-notch facility and regularly hosts the world’s finest cross-country skiers and biathletes. But you don’t have to be an Olympian to have a good time here. In the winter, more than 65 km (37 miles) of groomed and track-set trails beckon cross-country skiers of all experience levels. The day lodge is fully accessible and a good place to take a break and grab a bite. It’s also the place to go if you’re looking to rent snowshoes, fat bikes or cross-country skis. The Canmore Nordic Centre also enjoys an enviable reputation for its mountain biking and hiking trails. Hikers and mountain bikers will find more than 100 km (62 mi) of trails — and many jumps — to explore, plus a skills park. An 18-hole disc golf course offers a challenging and scenic layout year-round, although some holes are closed in winter.
