    You left out Heritage Park, The Calgary Zoo, Telus Spark, Fish Creek Park, The Glenbow Museum, The bike path system. Prince's Island 17th Ave and Kensington as well as Rafting on the Elbow and Bow Rivers.

      As a Calgarian I don't feel like a tourist at all when I go to Canmore and Banff. Especially when 90% of the people that do work and live there are from somewhere else. Sure they went outside Calgary city limits but everything they did is under 1.5 hours away and Calgary is by far the closest major city to those places. It's almost like Canmore and Banff are mountain satellite cities to Calgary.

    You went all the way to Louise but missed Moraine Lake. Too bad. That's one of the most spectacular views in the world.

    • @GoingAwesomePlaces
      @GoingAwesomePlaces  6 лет назад

      I KNOW! My one regret. It would've been amazing to do although I did hear from some people that there was a serious bear alert that summer.

    • @WildernessExcursions
      @WildernessExcursions 6 лет назад +1

      There are many bears in that area every summer. But never let that stop you from going. They want nothing to do with you. And for the most part, they try to stay far away from humans. When at Moraine Lake, I'd highly recommend doing the Larch Valley/Sentinel Pass hike. If there's a 4 person minimum (bear restriction) in effect, then simply join up with other groups along the way.

    • @GoingAwesomePlaces
      @GoingAwesomePlaces  6 лет назад

      That's a good tip! Definitely want to do that area next time we go. Bear spray recommended of course right?

    • @kenziebrooks1306
      @kenziebrooks1306 6 лет назад

      AlergicToSnow Moraine lake is gorgeous but Airdrie is very quiet and surrounded by water and mountains. Don't hold out and explore. I went water rafting every day on Moraine lake. Don't forget Ft. Mcmurry. It's where they film most American movies. ex; Sly filmed " Cliffhanger" there. I love the City. Bc is definitely beautiful but you don't get the mountains.

    • @kenziebrooks1306

      @@GoingAwesomePlaces You did the touristy stuff for sure which is usually a safe bet but very crowded! I know you probably cut most of it out with editing but Johnson Canyon must have been packed! As a local I like to take advantage of the vast wilderness and go find my own campsite on public use lands. You could also book a camp site and at least you're getting out into nature. One thing that's good to do if you're not from here is go visit or even stay at the Delta Lodge in Kananaskis. It was used as the athlete village during the 1988 winter Olympics and it's in a beautiful location! Sort of on the way to Banff but you turn south once you get into the mountains so it's still only an hour or so from Calgary. It has the hotel, like 3 restaurants, shops and a rental shop for outdoor equipment. Plus a horse riding ranch across the valley. Would be an amazing honeymoon or even wedding destination!
