Coal Mine Trail & Cold Beer

Categories: Outdoor Adventure & Recreation

“Climb for the view, stay for the brew.”

For those who like their adventures with a side of history and hops, this half-day hike hits the mark. The Coal Mine Trail, just minutes from Kananaskis Village, winds through forests and foothills to the remnants of a historic mining site. Along the way, guides share stories of the valley’s industrial past—how coal shaped the region long before it became a wellness retreat.

Cap it off with a well-earned pint at Woody’s or Blacktail Bar. Whether you’re toasting to old times or new trails, this pairing of exploration and refreshment is a distinctly Kananaskis tradition.
