🥾 COCHRANE WALKING CLUB — GROTTO CANYON!

This Sunday, we’re heading out to Grotto Canyon near Exshaw for a beautiful hike through a spectacular canyon! 🏔️🌲

📅 Sunday, August 30
⏰ Meet at 8:00 a.m.
📍 Good Earth Coffeehouse, Cochrane
🚗 Carpooling: We’ll meet at Good Earth and carpool from there.

🥾 Grotto Canyon Trail
📏 Approximately 7 km return
⏱️ Allow about 2–2.5 hours
⛰️ Moderate hike with some rocky and uneven terrain.

The trail takes us through the canyon with beautiful mountain scenery, rock walls and a chance to see some of the fascinating pictographs along the way. It’s a great one to get out and enjoy the mountains without committing to a huge hike!

🐻 BEAR SAFETY:
As always in Kananaskis/Bow Valley, we need to be bear aware. Please bring bear spray if you have it, keep it accessible (not buried in your backpack!), and stay together as a group. We’ll make plenty of noise as we hike.

👟 What to bring:
✔️ Good hiking shoes/boots
✔️ Water
✔️ Snacks
✔️ Bear spray
✔️ Layers — mountain weather can change quickly
✔️ Hiking poles if you use them

New to the Cochrane Walking Club? 👋
Welcome! New members are asked to join us for a local in-town walk before coming along on an out-of-town hike. There will be a local walk posted very shortly.

Come join us for another great Sunday adventure! ❤️

Please comment below if you’re coming and whether you can drive or need a ride.

See you Sunday! 🥾🏔️
