Coal Mine Hike and Beer

Kananaskis Trip Overview

Join one of our certified guides in the Kananaskis Village, then depart for the trailhead – a short 5minute drive in our personal vehicles. Kovach was a tiny town where the workers and their families from the coal mine once lived. This hike takes you along the trail where horses used to cart the coal, to a stunning viewpoint where the mine scar is visible. Retrace your steps through the forest as you imagine walking home from a long day at the mine to your home in Kovach.

After our beautiful hike, we will return to the village where a cold pint of Ghost Town Ale or a Shirley temple awaits you. Bottled water and cookies will be provided on the tour. Youth, child, and non-beer adult tickets include a non-alcoholic drink.

This 5 km hike, with 250 m elevation gain is suitable for children 8 years and older. Please schedule 3 hours for this excursion.
