King Creek Ridge Hike | Top 10 hikes in Kananaskis? | Kananaskis Alberta | Kev | July 12 2021

Today I hike King Creek Ridge Solo (but not really 😉) I didn’t expect to get so much bang for my buck on this one! The views are great on the way up and the way down.
777m gain so nothing too major. Steep in some spots but the trail is in good shape. 6.8km and took me 6 hours.
The drive in is awesome. You lose cell reception quickly but who cares! There’s so much wildlife to see all along Highway 40. I saw two deer on the way in and a couple deer and one rocky mountain sheep on the way out.
Kananaskis Alberta is a little less busy than more well known hiking spots. But offers equally awesome views. I love coming out to hike here.

Been there last saturday july 20, 2024 man i can relate.. this is the first time i hike a mountain and im out of breathe already after 30mins climbing up, i let my friends go on without me as i dont wanna slow them down and other climber get past me too im shocked little girl and grandma climbing like a piece of cake and as a result i end up alone climbing up never thought i will enjoy climbing alone its kind of refreshing, i don't even care if bear suddenly appear i dont have bear spray or anything in me except my bag with change of clothers, water and chips.. its just pure silent and a little sound of breeze after that hike i have come to realization to boost my stamina and quit smoking..

Thanks, Samrawi! I appreciate it! You have to come out with me more 🙌😉 this hike was great 😁

[@dilbertmcfly5986]

I was there July8 (for different hike) and July11,2021.
If you are seasoned avid hiker, you can do it under 3hr.
Its constant steep climb, with little shade and very steep slippery section 200m before ridge. Dont go if it just rained.
Finally, there is "walled off" alternate route with crazy drop offs and scaling down walls. Stay on main route!

Hi is there any scramble way up? We usually hike with our daughters 19 and 14yr old. Our 14 yr cried almost to the false summit of folding mountain. Can she make it to king creek? Thanks

[@KevAlberta]

No scrambling on this route. You will find the worst or most exposed part of the trail is at 5:30 and at 6:20. There is definitely a big drop on the right hand (hiker’s right) side at 6:28. Other than that it’s not the worst. You must use your own judgement if your 14yr old can make it or not
