Follow the defined path trailing roughly along the creek bed, a 20 minute hike from the car park. King Creek lies at the bottom of a gorge with steep rock walls on either side and a cascade of fat ice being forced out of the rocks. It's a gorgeous spot, showcasing the true beauty of Kananaskis.

It’s a great ice climbing crag, with 4 solid ice climbs, a few partial ice climbs and some mixed routes. These climbs vary in length, so its good to bring a 70m rope if possible. None of the climbs are top-rope, they all must be initially led.

King Creek is a great location for novice climbers, with friendly mixed routes and soft ice in the spring (another bonus being that it provides a very long ice season).

Pack lots of layers and lots of snacks, as it's easy to make a day out of King Creek!
