The popular Legacy Trail connecting Canmore to Banff National Park is officially open for the season.
Trail users are advised of a temporary dirt ramp near the Harvie Heights overpass due to ongoing work on the Bow Valley Fireguard Project. The ramp is expected to be removed by May 9.
The Legacy Trail welcomes all forms of non-motorized travel, including ebikes, strollers, and mobility aids.

Trail users are reminded to ride to conditions, stay to the right, and announce when passing to help keep the path safe for everyone.
Officials also warn that bears may be in the area. Visitors are urged to carry bear spray, keep it easily accessible, and know how to use it.
