WELCOME TO CORE  -  A CALGARY-BASED HIKING CLUB

Hiking - Scrambling - Urban Walks - Backpacking - Skiing - Snowshoeing - Social Events



CORE is a Calgary-based hiking club created in 1999. We are a smaller club of very active members of varying ages. New members have often commented on how welcome they felt when coming out for first events.

Our primary activities are day hikes. Check out our past events calendar to see some of the hikes we have done. We also have a very active contingent of scramblers. Check them out here.

Another unique club activity are the urban walks. A great way to get exercise mid-week. Many of us have discovered parts of our city we never knew existed.

 Hiking is our primary activity, but we also have active participation in skiing (cross-country and downhill), snowshoeing, backpacking, camping, cycling, and canoeing. We also hold social events with dinner or movie nights, picnics and barbeques, as well as other group social activities and outings. Trip and event planning is an ongoing process and we welcome and encourage members to get involved by suggesting and/or coordinating activities. We feel the more involved members are, the more fun it is !

 

 

 

 

 

Note: The parking lot adjacent to the "Old Firehall" is accessible only from eastbound Memorial drive; thus the arrows in this map.   If you're driving on Memorial Drive westbound, you'll need to find parking on the north side of Memorial Drive; e.g. the parkade adjacent to Julio's Barrio.  (Better yet: Take a bicycle or C-train, or just walk from your office downtown)
