About the Tour

The tour of the Bragg Creek area involves a 30-minute loop that begins as you head west towards the Majestic Rocky Mountains, a truly amazing view in itself. Bragg Creek settlement is only a few-minute flight, just west of Calgary via Red Wood Meadows.

On route, you will look out over the Tsuu T’ina First Nation Territory where the traditional Pow Wow grandstand, still used today, will be in clear view. Your pilot will take you along the banks of the Elbow River, one of the two major waterways which run through Calgary. This is an area rich in wildlife and a variety of vegetation. Look out for the Bears and Elk which are frequent visitors at selected times of the year.

Your pilot will fly over the hamlet of Bragg Creek, a small quaint shopping area with an emphasis on traditional stores. Turning toward West Bragg Creek and Moose Flats, you will experience further wildlife that this area has to offer! It’s called Moose Flats for a reason; moose are often spotted in this area, so have your cameras ready!

As a bonus, on the return trip to Springbank, you will fly over the famous movie set originally constructed for the 1994 film Legends of the Fall Starring Brad Pitt and Anthony Hopkins. The set is still being used in popular films, most recently in The Assassination of Jessie James.

Your L R HELICOPTERS tour will then conclude back at our base in Springbank. We are sure you will never look at Southern Alberta the same way again.
