Top 6 Gear Rentals in Canmore, Canadian Rockies
Catapulted to fame for its part in the 1988 Winter Olympics, this former coal-mining town in the Canadian Rockies is a perfect base for visiting some of the country’s most impressive national parks. First stop for most visitors is the ski trails in Canmore Nordic Centre Provincial Park. Contemplate natural wonders at the Museum and Geoscience Centre, and mush through the snow on a sled-dog tour.

I have rented equipment and had skis tuned at GearUp many times over the past 15 years and confirm they are the best rental shop in the Rockies. I base this statement on personal experience and the fact that GearUp has: 1. a wide selection of new high-quality equipment, 2. knowledgeable and friendly staff, 3: convenient location and efficient process to minimize wait time. I really appreciated the safety precautions they have taken around COVID i.e. one-way flow: in one door, get Geared Up and out another separate door.

Thank you Rebound Cycle for building and organizing a guided fat bike tour on some of Canada’s best trails! Our guide Ryan quickly met us at our skill level, and took us on some routes that encouraged safe and skillful riding while getting our heart rate up and keeping our smiles big! Ryan acted as a guide, a cheerleader, and even an awesome photographer for our amazing day on the trails, and kept this light hearted and fun! We worked hard and enjoyed every minute of it. We decimated some crickets and finished the day with a tour and tasting of some amazing local Canmore beer, all thanks to Ryan! Looking forward to coming back to ride with Ryan and the crew at Rebound, and hopefully taking on a bigger overnight fat bike adventure! Thanks again for a wonderful day, from Batman and Robin, Dunkin’ and Gill!
