Canmore/Minnewanka/Norquay/Banff Golf Course

I would like to encourage people from Calgary to carpool. Please contact me if you can take somebody in your vehicle or if you are looking for a ride.  Please note that Legacy Parking lot at Canmore Visitor Centre has limited parking. I’ve heard that the parking time restriction there is now only 4 hours. An alternative parking is available 1.7km from the ride start at Harvey Heights parking lot shown below. We will start from Canmore Visitor Centre.

Road Ride:  Intermediate to Advanced

Coordinator: Tanya Colwell

Distance:  90 km (full) or 75km (if excluding Minnewanka loop)

Elevation: +863m (or +653m if no Minnewanka climb)

Pace:  22-27 km/hr

The old-time favourite, starting from Canmore Visitor Information Centre, we ride on Legacy trail, do the Minnewanka loop clock-wise, continue on to the Norquay hill climb.  Then, recovery at Wild Flour Cafe in Banff for lunch and a pleasure ride through Banff Golf Course counter clock-wise returning back on Legacy trail (hopefully with the usual tail wind).
