Food Scene
The Iron Goat Pub & Restaurant has got it all: amazing views, great food and one of
the best patios in the Bow Valley! It’s a local favourite and serves up an impressive
menu that includes homemade wood fired pizzas. But our personal
recommendations are the Minted Melon & Feta Salad or the Kobe Oscar Burger
(Kobe beef burger topped with lobster and blue crab).

This is one of the most popular hikes in Canmore ending at twin turquoise lakes.
Elevation gain is mild approx. 250 meters and the round trip is around 3.8 Km. The
trail splits shortly from the start, for the easier trail keep to the right as it follows
along an old access road through the forest. To the left is the more difficult option,
which climbs through the forest topping out with a view of Canmore and a waterfall,
both trails then meet up and continue on to the lakes.
For the adventurous one can scramble above the lakes to find a collection of
aboriginal pictographs. DO NOT touch the pictographs, as the oil from your hands
will wear them away.

Ha Ling Peak is a small summit with steep ascent - great for those looking for a
challenge and a good hike to get into summits. Great views up top and because it's a
popular hike, it’s good for those that want to try solo hiking. The hike is 8 Km round
trip, season Mid-May to October once the snow line has retreated.
