Cochrane
Situated just 18km west of Calgary and 25 minutes to Kananaskis Country, Cochrane residents here enjoy living in great new communities with employment opportunities, an excellent transportation system, schools, mountain and valley views, pathways, natural areas, recreation facilities, and it is 20 minutes closer to the mountains.
Located in the foothills along the beautiful Bow River, with magnificent views of the Rocky Mountains, Cochrane is a modern community that has retained its western heritage.
