Custom Urban Hikes

Join Lori Beattie, author of Calgary's Best Hikes and Walks, Calgary's Best Bike Rides and Trails and owner of Fit Frog Adventures, on year-round urban hikes that lead you over hills and down dales throughout Calgary 's most interesting neighbourhoods, parks and natural areas. These walking tours are a wonderful way to get to know the hidden pathways of Calgary, to keep fit, meet new people, experience Calgary’s seasonal changes, or simply rid your body of stress. Fresh air, homes and gardens, parks and pathways, cafés, bakeries and funky shops, Bow River and Rocky Mountain views; there is something for all interests on an urban hike. Slow your pace, put foot to pavement and experience Calgary from a pedestrians’ perspective. Have a self-propelled mini-adventure in your own backyard! Check out a Sample Custom Urban Hike! 

We also enjoy organizing mountain hikes, snowshoe days, and multi-day lodge-based adventures that suit your group.  We can arrange these to be self-guided; we'll provide the itinerary and routing for all hikes to suit your interests or Lori can join you as the on site organizer. FAMILY hikes, BIRTHDAY HIKES, CORPORATE COLLEAGUE outings,  or groups of FRIENDS IN TRAINING for a big hike; just let us know a bit more about who you are and what you'd like and we can create an outing that is unforgettable! 

For more information or a price quote for a multi-day program  please call Lori at 229-4299 or email lorib@fitfrog.ca .

Physical fitness, stress relief, relaxation and fun: Walking is an activity that accommodates diverse

fitness levels and interests. 

Fun family time: Slow the pace and get the whole family out on the trails. Any age, there is a hike to suit!

Group cohesion: The walkers pace is slow; it allows for observation and conversation. This is a welcome

switch from Calgary’s fast-pace and it allows for more relaxed conversation amongst the group.

Facing uncertainty: The ever-changing outdoor environment requires participants to go with the flow, be

flexible and open-minded.
