Overview

This loop is optimized for maximum variety, light walking, and photography, offering a one-day highlight reel of some of Kananaskis Country's most iconic landmarks.

See exactly why this world-class landscape was selected to host the 2025 G7 Summit as you discover a quieter side of the Canadian Rockies. Kananaskis Country offers a rugged, 'wilder' alternative to the neighbouring national parks: quieter trails, less development, and fewer crowds.

On this multi-stop tour we explore turquoise lakes, rapids & waterfalls, and the highest paved road in Canada, deviating from our usual hike-based Kananaskis itineraries to focus on a sequence of diverse, high-impact ecosystems. The ideal choice for those seeking a varied, 'best-of' mountain experience off the beaten track.

  • Private experience with door-to-door service from Calgary (max 11 participants)
  • Includes picnic lunch and refreshments on the go
  • Easy to moderate hiking, suitable for most fitness levels

Activity itinerary

Grassi Lakes

  • 1h 30m
  • Admission ticket included
Our first stop stretches the legs on a gentle ascent to two crystal-clear, emerald pools nestled beneath a towering limestone canyon. The ideal introduction to the region’s unique geology and vibrant alpine colours. Trail length: 3.5km, with 150m elevation gain.

Spray Lake

  • 45m
  • Admission ticket included
Spray Lakes & The Smith-Dorrien: We leave the pavement behind for the rugged and beautiful Highway 742 "backroad." This high-elevation gravel route is flanked by many trailheads and offers a true backcountry feel, with several lakeside photo opportunities. We'll stop for lunch at a day use area with a view along the Smith-Dorrien, or at Lower Kananaskis Lake.

Alberta 40

After lunch, we transition to the highest paved road in Canada. Quiet, winding, and spectacular, this drive offers 360-degree mountain views and is a prime corridor for wildlife sightings, including bighorn sheep and grizzly bears.

Wedge Pond

  • 20m
  • Admission ticket included
*According to group preference, we will EITHER stop at Wedge Pond, OR Widowmaker in the afternoon* A serene post-lunch stretch. Known for its mirror-like mountain reflections and golden larch trees in the autumn, the easy 1km loop trail here is a photographer’s favourite for its stillness and symmetry.

Troll Falls

  • 1h 30m
  • Admission ticket included
Our primary afternoon stop, featuring a 4-5km hike through a forested trail to the tiered cascades of Troll Falls – a local favourite and stunning destination year-round. Time and energy levels permitting, we have the option for a slower return through the open Hay Meadow, following the Kananaskis River through the valley.

Barrier Lake

  • 15m
  • Admission ticket included
As we begin our descent toward the foothills, we stop at this expansive reservoir. The contrast between the turquoise water and the rugged front-range mountains provides a final, high-impact vista of the Kananaskis wilderness.

Widowmaker

  • 20m
  • Admission ticket included
*According to group preference, we will EITHER stop at Wedge Pond, OR Widowmaker in the afternoon* A brief stop at the Kananaskis River to see the rapids. A popular haunt for local kayakers, the flat trail along the riverbank offers a front-row seat to the rapids before we rejoin the highway for the return to Calgary.
