Silvertip Resort is found on the sunny side of the Bow Valley, in a mountain wilderness setting near the alpine village of Canmore. Located 96 kilometres (approximately 50 minutes) west of Calgary and at the entrance to Banff National Park, the region offers spectacular views of the surrounding Rocky Mountains, and stands at the edge of an immense, untouched wilderness reserve. Silvertip Resort’s 600 acres of peaks, grasslands and valleys are perched on the benchlands of Mount Lady MacDonald and are drenched in warmth and sunshine: it is the only resort in the entire region on the south-facing side of the mountains. This means long, warm days on the links or sitting on the clubhouse deck.
