Hikes for Families

Hikes for Families is a family-focused trail guide to the Canadian Rockies that makes it easier to get outside with kids. It covers hikes near Banff, Canmore, Kananaskis, Bragg Creek, and Calgary, with practical planning details that matter when you are heading out as a family: trail descriptions, directions, nearby attractions, and maps for each route.

What sets this guide apart is how clearly it speaks to family use. Each hike includes a difficulty rating specifically for kids, plus notes on whether the trail is stroller and/or wheelchair accessible. It also goes beyond route beta with tips for enjoying the trails, games to play along the way, and gear packing lists. Written by Annika Mang of BorntobeAdventurous.com, it comes from the perspective of someone who has spent years helping families make outdoor days feel more manageable and more worthwhile.
