1 Coworking Spaces in Canmore

About Canmore

Sitting in Alberta's Rocky Mountains, Canmore has been featured in numerous movies such as "Brokeback Mountain", "Legends of the Fall" and "The Edge", to name a few. A former coal-mining town, it is the quiet alternative to the hordes of tourists wandering Banff that is only 26km away. This is where the scenery will take your breath away. Cloaked in craggy summits, trekking trails, waterfalls and blue lakes, Canmore is the escape hatch for anyone into the wilds and skiing. For the innovative locals who don't wish to leave their stunning playground or for globetrotting souls who may need to get some work done, coworking venues have now opened up.

With only 12,288 inhabitants on a permanent basis, this is definitely not a tech hub, but predominantly a designated "wildlife corridor" - think along the lines of cougars, wolves, elk and bears taking their morning walks. The town is more a sprawling mass and it will take over one and a half hours to cover it on foot. Its' main street has the oldest architecture in the town and it's lined with restaurants, galleries and some funky cafes. You can feast your eyes on mountains such as Ha Ling Peak, Three Sisters, Grotto Mountain, Mount Lady Macdonald and Mount Lawrence Grassi from the town. When you need a break from the mountain air, you can always run into the Canmore Museum and Geoscience Center to have a peek into the history of the area.

Canmore has a wealth of festivals happening throughout the year from food extravaganzas or a mountain bike race named "24 Hours of Adrenalin". There is the Canmore Winter Carnival with happenings such as ice carving and dog sled racing, plus an annual ski marathon and others. Canmore is the place to linger where in the winter you can put on your skis and head off to the slopes during your mid-morning break from your coworking space.
