My Favourite Alberta Hiking Adventures! (Summer 2018 Edition)

October 1, 2018

Posted by Lauren Rodych-Eberle

My friend and I often talk about the hikes that get you addicted to hiking. Not all hikes are created equal, and it all depends on your personality and what style of adventures you like.

Ha Ling Hiking Trail Alberta

This summer, I had two Alberta hikes that did that for me – that made me want to plan my next hike instantly.

Here they are. Please have good gear (hiking boots, lots of water, and possibly hiking poles) if you choose to do either of these hikes!!

#1: Lady MacDonald Teahouse Trail

Lady MacDonald Tea House Trail Hike Alberta Canada

This was one of those hikes that had me thinking about it, talking about it, looking at pictures of it, over and over again. Lady MacDonald is near Canmore – it is a difficult-rated, out and back hike, that is 8.7km and said to take about 4-7 hours, all depending how much time you spend sitting (and eating) in awe at the “Lady MacDonald Tea House” (that was never actually built).

This one isn’t super family-friendly, and doesn’t have great signage along the way, but if you want a bit of a challenge, and to feel strong and accomplished, and get a beauty-view, this is the hike that you add to your list!Lady MacDonald Tea House Trail Hike Alberta Canada

Take note that this hike is likely not for beginners and some people might appreciate hiking poles – do some reading on the AllTrails App, and as always, make sure you have enough water!

#2: Ha Ling Trail

This hike is straight up! It is a 5.6km, out and back hike, rated as difficult, with a meditative, forest setting. Ha Ling’s stunning views at the top are all worth that quick incline for the entire hike. It was closed quite a bit for maintenance this year, so make sure you check closures before heading out. Also, if you choose to do it when there may be some snow/ice on the ground, think about wearing ice cleats (you can easily rent these) and having hiking poles! Expect about 2-3 hours to complete this hike.

Ha Ling Hiking Trail Alberta

Ha Ling is a huge hit, so it can be very busy, and can be tricky passing people in the narrow sections. If possible, try to go during the week at quieter times. Ha Ling is much easier than Lady MacDonald, so maybe give this one a go first, and tell me when you catch that hiking bug!

As always, Happy Hiking!

My Beginner Piano eCourse is fully out in the worl My Beginner Piano eCourse is fully out in the world!!

As of yesterday, the full course is released, and this wave of relief just washed over me!! The amount of time, energy, and resources that goes into these courses is more than I would have ever known, but I’m so happy, and grateful to have them available to people for a lifetime, and also to have a way to continue to offer music to many more people, in many more homes, for unlimited time!!

Tomorrow I’ll release a blog that will answer all the top questions I’ve been asked about my Preschool Music eCourse and my Beginner Piano eCourse, so you can see if they are a fit for you or anyone you know!!

But now, tell me a goal you’re dreaming up - work-related or not!!

I’m overdue for 5 Fun Facts, so let’s pair it I’m overdue for 5 Fun Facts, so let’s pair it with these five fun photos!

1. I didn’t like anything grapefruit before I had Collins, and now I’m always like, “Give me all the grapefruit sparkling water!”

2. I’ve always had multiple jobs from the time I was a teenager…I sum it up to me thinking that variety is the spice of life. 

3. I believe ketchup and mustard belong on breakfast egg sandwiches. 

4. If you asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up, I would have said “a mom!” I still think it’s the greatest gift in the whole entire world. 

5. Even though I said variety is the spice of life, I am wildly good with repetition for an incredible amount of time…the same food, the same song, the same walk…I don’t know if it’s patience or just insanity, but I don’t get sick of the same thing over and over and over and over and over again. 

Give me a fun fact about you!!
