Why you'd want to live in Cochrane

In the Town of Cochrane, we enjoy the best of both worlds. Cochrane is located along the banks of the beautiful Bow River, just 20 minutes from downtown Calgary while the Rocky Mountains are only a relaxing one hour’s drive away, opening the gateway to all they have to offer. The Town of Cochrane is located at the intersection of two major highways just west of Calgary. The Bow Valley Trail (Highway 1A) runs parallel to the Trans Canada Highway. It provides a very good alternative link to Calgary and to Banff National Park. The Bow Valley Trail is intersected by The Cowboy Trail (Highway 22), which runs north-south. via cochrane.ca
