From YYC, downtown and the mountains, with free parking at the end

Six ways in

Pick your starting point, open the route

Each card says what to expect on the way and links to a live route in Google Maps, ending at the resort's own map pin. We give no drive times of our own: Calgary traffic swings too much, and the route link shows the real figure for the moment you check.

• Airport · driving

  From YYC by car, cab or ride app

  YYC is on the northeast side of Calgary and the resort is on the southwest edge, so this is a full crossing of the city. Deerfoot Trail, which is Highway 2 inside the city, and Glenmore Trail are the obvious pair, and the Deerfoot–Glenmore interchange is a known bottleneck; the Stoney Trail ring road is the way around it. Let the route below choose for the hour you land. Ride-app pickups at YYC are on the Arrivals level by Doors 3, 12 or 15, and at peak times also on Departures at Doors 5 and 11.

• Airport · transit

  From YYC by bus and CTrain

  There is no rail link to the terminal. The airport authority lists two Calgary Transit buses that serve it: Route 500, an express to downtown along Centre Street with few stops, and Route 100 to Saddletowne station on the Blue Line. Both get you into the CTrain network; none of it reaches the resort, so expect a bus or a cab for the last stretch. The transit route below shows the current connections; check the time of the last one before a late flight.

• City centre · driving

  From downtown by car or taxi

  From the Calgary Tower the job is to get onto Glenmore Trail heading west and leave it at the 37 Street SW and Grey Eagle Boulevard interchange, which was built as a full diamond and is the resort's front door. Outside rush hour this is the short hop locals mean when they call Grey Eagle a Calgary casino; on a concert night, leave earlier than you think.

• City centre · transit

  From downtown by transit

  The Red and Blue CTrain lines share 7 Avenue downtown and the stretch between Downtown West-Kerby and City Hall is free to ride, but neither line has a station at the resort. Google's transit planner works out the bus that covers the gap for your time of day. We still do not print a route number of our own, because Calgary Transit changes its network and we could not tie one to the resort's address.

• West · driving

  From Canmore, Banff and the mountains

  Come east on Highway 1. Since December 2023 the west leg of the Stoney Trail ring road has linked Highway 1 with Highway 8 on the west side of the city, and the ring road meets Glenmore Trail at an interchange in the southwest; on Tsuut'ina land the same road is signed Tsuut'ina Trail. From Glenmore Trail it is the 37 Street SW exit. The drive from the mountains is about an hour, more if Highway 1 is snowy.

• North · driving

  From Edmonton and the north

  Highway 2 runs south from Edmonton and becomes Deerfoot Trail inside Calgary. Either stay on Deerfoot to Glenmore Trail and turn west, or swing onto Stoney Trail before the city to avoid Deerfoot traffic. The route below compares the two for the moment you check, which matters more than any rule of thumb.
