Introducing Canmore
Canmore was once the quiet alternative to the mass tourism of Banff. Trouble is, word got out and now everybody is there for some peace and quiet. Luckily, the soul of the town has remained intact, with the small downtown area devoid of overly commercial ventures. At just 26m from Banff, sitting right outside the Banff park gates, and on the cusp of Kananaskis Country, it really is at the crossroads of some of the most magnificent scenery you will ever see. For those seeking a mountain holiday with slightly less glitz, more of a rugged feel and less pretension, Canmore is the place to be.
