CANMORE GUIDED TOURS

Canmore Adventures Canoe Rentals include a stable, easy-to-paddle canoe, paddles, and properly fitted personal flotation devices (PFDs) for an unforgettable experience in the breathtaking landscapes of the Canadian Rockies.

Join Canmore Adventures and expert PeakSTRATAGEM guides for an unforgettable vertical adventure in the Bow Valley. Originally developed to move troops through the Alps during wartime, Via Ferrata allows you to safely scale a cliff face using a system of ladders, rungs, and cables—no prior climbing experience required.

Curious about climbing or ready to take your skills to the next level? This tour offers you a chance to connect with nature, challenge yourself, and discover why the Canadian Rockies are a world-renowned climbing destination.

On the Bow Valley Via Ferrata experience, travel up Steve’s Canyon and see how time has carved away at the limestone to create beautiful smooth faces in the canyon. Along the way, climb out to stunning views of the surrounding alpine landscape. This adventure offers a unique blend of geology, vertical movement, and visual reward.

Embark on an unforgettable journey through one of the last truly remote mountain rivers. Encounter continuous whitewater, stunning canyons, and wildlife such as bears, moose, and elk. This adventure includes training on the Kananaskis River, preparing you for challenging Class 3 rapids, slot canyon hikes, and braided channels.

Join us for a guided afternoon adventure paddling down the crystal-clear waters of the Bow River in a stable, inflatable kayak. This relaxing and scenic float is perfect for visitors of all ages and experience levels.

This intermediate tour allows you to experience the scenic beauty and rush of the lower Kananaskis River in your own inflatable kayak, guided by our friendly, knowledgeable team. This half-day adventure is perfect for those looking for an active yet approachable river experience. Expect sweeping mountain views, potential wildlife sightings, and a few splashes as you navigate fun, rolling rapids. With a medium adventure rating, it’s the sweet spot between thrill and chill.

Big mountain views, glacial waters, beautiful spruce and pine shorelines and ample opportunities to catch a glimpse or two of some wildlife, are just a few of the highlights that our Townie Float offer our guests. Tie that in with a fully guided experience from one of our interpretive guides and this makes for the perfect outing for everyone. This gentle 1 hr float starts downtown Canmore, only a few minutes away from the local pubs, restaurants, shops and galleries, and only a hop, skip and a jump from most hotels and bed and breakfasts.

It’s the Kananaskis River with a twist!  As Rafters, we go head to head with the biggest rapids on the river.  After we’ve pushed through the rapid we then paddle back towards the flow and catch the wave.  Hang on tight, feel the power of the river as you surf the wave.  It’s a different way to experience Whitewater Rafting; we promise you won’t regret it.

The Kananaskis River hosts playful whitewater rapids and scenic landscapes. With class 2-3 whitewater rapids, it’s a great adventure for all ages (5 years old and up) and ability levels; a river experience everyone can enjoy!

Our signature Ghost Canyoning Trip, located on the North eastern edge of Banff National Park is one of the most secluded, wild, & spectacular canyon trips you’ll experience anywhere. An all day adventure requiring 4×4 access, this spectacular experience rewards any visitor with remote mountain vistas and a canyon experience second to none.
