Advisories

Advisories

Bike trails are drying out nicely and are generally in good shape! Spring melt is causing some drainages to overflow resulting in wet sections.

Public Wax Rooms are closed for the season.
For all emergencies on trail please dial 9-1-1 & report that you're in Kananaskis Country at the Canmore Nordic Centre Provincial Park.

Please report any carnivore sightings (bears, wolves, cougars) to Kananaskis Emergency Services by calling (403) 591-7755. We recommend carrying Bear Spray year-round. 

Please Do Not Litter (cigarette butts, poop bags and banana peels or apple cores are littering) and help us to keep this site free of garbage. Improper disposal of garbage and waste has the potential to draw wildlife and can force area closures.

Practice leave no trace and pack out what you bring in. If a bear-proof garbage bin is FULL, please take your garbage home or use another bin.
