Active by Nature leads walking tours & Nordic walking tours, & guided hikes, year round, in the heart of the Canadian Rockies, Canmore. Walks are conducted on the town's recreational trail system, featuring spectacular scenery and opportunities for wildlife viewing. The initial focus on the Nordic walks is developing the skills of Nordic walking. Think of it as cross-country skiing without the skis! This activity TURBO-CHARGES a walk, turning into a workout that targets all your core muscles as well as your arms and legs. Nordic walking burns mega-calories compared to just walking while the use of poles also promotes great posture, off-loads stress from hips and knees and provides exceptional stability on all terrain. There is lots of opportunity to explore and learn about this unique mountain town. Outings are between 1 hr 30 min & 2 hours. Age 12 & over. Hikes & snowshoe hikes on select trails in nearby Kananaskis Country are also scheduled on a monthly basis.

I am an Australian-Canadian professional photographer based in Canmore in the Canadian Rockies. I enjoy hiking & backpacking, and have had many opportunities to do so throughout the world but nowhere more so than right here in the Canadian Rockies where I am a certified guide with the Interpretive Guides Association. It is here that I feel in my element; taking my best photographs, exploring my creativity and curiosity on the search for new angles, rare light and emotive moments in time.
