Explore the history of the Kovach Mine as we make our way along the Coal Mine trail. Join one of our certified guides in the Kananaskis Village, then depart for the trailhead - a short 5minute drive in our personal vehicles. Kovach was a tiny town where the workers and their families from the coal mine once lived. This hike takes you along the trail where horses used to cart the coal, to a stunning viewpoint where the mine scar is visible. Retrace your steps through the forest as you imagine walking home from a long day at the mine to your home in Kovach. After our beautiful hike, we will return to the village where a cold pint of Ghost Town Ale or a Shirley temple awaits you. Bottled water and cookies will be provided on the tour. Youth, child, and non-beer adult tickets include a non-alcoholic drink. This 5 km hike, with 250 m elevation gain is suitable for children 8 years and older. Please schedule 3 hours for this excursion.
