      The North East side of the Canmore area with a sunny SW aspect and a long season. It stretches from the Cougar Creek area to Harvey heights and is between the town and the wildlife corridor.

      The Montane trail is the classic ride that rises up from Cougar Creek, and follows the narrow strip between the wildlife corridor (closed) and the Silvertip golf course before opening up into a network of trails between Harvey Heights and Canmore.

      Expect multiple user groups including equestrians.
