Explore Upper Kananaskis Lake located in Peter Lougheed Provincial Park. The lake is a part of a series of natural and man made lakes in the Kananaskis and Bow Valley used for hydro electric power, flood control and water reserves. - Wikipedia
The hiking trail is a 15.3 km loop which you can start either in the Upper Kananaskis Day Use Area or from the North Interlakes Day Use. Be mesmerized by the beauty of the stunning blue/green waters and by the towering view of Mt. Indefatigable, Mt. Lyautey, Mt. Sarrail, Gap Mountain and Pocaterra to name a few.
Driving back to Calgary, we decided to stop by the Black Shale Suspension Bridge located in Smith Dorrien Trail. There is a trail across the road from Black Prince starting from the sign showing "High Rockies Trail". This is about 7.1 km, for an easy accent you can drive about 3.2 km E from Black Prince, there is a bridge bypass trail leading to the suspension bridge.
Make sure to bring a bear spray with you on your hike, you are in K Country. Sure enough we saw a Grizzly with her cubs on our way back to Calgary.
From upper kananaskis lake po, malayo layo pa po ba ang hike papunta sa suspension bridge?
Hi Trinna, the Blackshale Suspension Bridge is actually from a different trailhead but not far of a drive from Kananaskis Lake. From Upper Kananaskis Day Use Area drive towards Smith Dorrien Trail (Hi Way 742) heading to Canmore. Trailhead of the suspension bridge is about 2 km before the Black Prince Day Use Area. Or if you want a short 7 km hike, you can start at the trailhead right across Black Prince with sign saying High Rockies.
