Endless Summer
A Canmore Love Letter
A summer so treasured you never want it to come to an end and the inspiration behind our latest release. There's something about summer in Canmore that makes you forget what day it is…and not care. Time feels suspended and things that once felt urgent fade into the background, unhurried sunsoaked and absolutely perfect.
It's this particular magic that made our Endless Summer candle inevitable. Some feelings are too good not to capture.
ROMANTICISE
EVERY MEAL
Every picnic spot in Canmore comes with a view that could ruin eating indoors for you ever again. Breakfast on the grass while the morning light climbs the peaks. Lunch that stretches into the afternoon because nobody wants to pack up yet. Dinner as the alpenglow starts its show. There's something about eating outside here that makes even a grocery store sandwich taste like it was crafted by a chef.
Our fave picnic spots:
- Quarry Lake - Bring your swimmers for a post picnic dip.
- Riverside Park - A hub of activity and space for spike ball too!
- Three Sisters View Point - A serene water side escape, with an unbeaten view of the three sisters.
From juicy bites to thirst-quenching sips, these flavours are made for warm days and laid-back hangs.
WATERS THAT GLITTER
The water here glitters like it's showing off, and honestly, it should. Whether you want to enjoy from the sidelines and admire the green and blue hues, or if you’re ready to take the (cold) plunge, resetting everything, mind and body included.
Our fave water spots:
- Quarry Lake - For swimming and cliff jumping
- Rundle Forebay Reservoir - For Paddleboarding
- The Bow River - For a Polar Plunge
FRESHEST PRODUCE
Thursday mornings at the Canmore Mountain Market , or as we call it market therapy. Piles of fruit so perfect they look staged, flowers that make you want to clear your dining table for them, and the best coffee in Canmore. The kind of abundance that reminds you why farmers markets exist and grocery stores feel like giving up.
Catch the market at Elevation Place, Thursdays 10-5, and bring the good tote bag.

DOWNTOWN THAT’S GIVING STARS HOLLOW
Main Street closes to cars from May to October, a real treat for leisurely wandering main street. Miander without dodging traffic, coffee in hand, 360-degree mountain views making every corner feel like a postcard someone forgot to send.
And yes, we're slightly biased, but an afternoon at Stonewaters might be the best way to spend a few hours in town. Every corner is curated with care and attention. Browsing is a true experience here itself.
a Never-Ending Summer
Time suspended in that perfect moment when it feels like summer will never come to an end.
