This is a classic sunny-side trail, great for those colder days. It offers a fun network of rolling and semi-technical trails and the views of downtown Canmore and the mountains are beautiful. The Horseshoe Loop and its variations are a great introduction trail to the local network. The G8 and G9 additions make for a great 1.5 to 2h loop with its added elevation. A staff's favourite!
