Flying in, take a look out your window to see the surrounding magnitude of these mountain ranges. Your plane will land right at the Canadian Rockies International Airport.
While in Cranbrook, you'll quickly discover that you are only seven minutes to anywhere you want to be. Several hiking and biking trails are within a 10-minute drive from downtown! That means peaceful lakes, great river valleys, and golf courses surrounded by nature are right at your fingertips.
This is a community where nature is close to downtown and the city's history & culture are a sight as impressive as our wild spaces.
The population is about 20,000. We love our neighbours and encourage visitors to extend their stay and check out Kimberley, Fernie, Invermere & Creston.
