But a short trip away from Banff and Jasper National Parks, Calgary is a fine urban center in which to base for easy bar access, a glimpse of Olympic sights and other assorted attractions.
The Ant Knolls is, in and of itself, a scenic, short singletrack on a narrow trail. The ride is intermediate, but since the trail starts high and ends higher, that elevation change of 500 feet can be taxing.
The longer (and tougher) Dry Fork Loop and Big Flat Loop are accessible from Ant Knolls.
