Geography: Redwood Meadows sits on a truly gorgeous stretch of land. It’s nestled right in the Foothills, that mark the end of the Great Plains and the start of the Rockies. The Elbow River flows beside the community, which adds to Redwood Meadows’s natural beauty. The town is committed to preserving this natural beauty through extensive development restrictions there are no fences between properties, so if scenic landscapes are important to you, then Redwood Meadows is a great place to be.
Climate: Redwood Meadows’s climate is about what you’d expect for a city at the juncture of the Plains and the Rockies. Summers are temperate to hot (it can get to 35 degrees Celsius) autumn is temperate, winters are cold with snow, and spring is volatile — it can snow one day and be 25 and sunny the next.
The air is very dry (if you are coming from a coastal city you’ll notice a need for more moisturizer, water, etc.) and there is plenty of sunshine, though in the summers the sunshine is frequently interrupted by brief thunderstorms.
Housing / amenities: Housing is on average similar than to other centres geographically in proximity.
The “natural” amenities and recreational activities in Redwood Meadows are top notch. Great hiking trails, ski hills , bike trails etc. all either around town or an easy drive away. In general, nearly everyone in Redwood Meadows regularly does at least one of the following leisure activities:
There are also regular recreational activities that take place at the community centre called Redwood House. Weekly leisure activities include fitness classes, tae kwon do, community café and many more!

Join us for some fun group fitness in Redwood Meadows every Monday, Wednesday and Friday morning from 9 to 10 am (September to June). Workouts change weekly but always include a warm-up and some combination of strength, cardio, balance and flexibility exercises. All you need to start is running shoes, an exercise mat and a water bottle. We often use hand weights and sometimes use exercise bands and balls.
Classes will be held in Redwood House or, weather permitting, outside on the sports field in Redwood Meadows (email [email protected] for location).
Drop-ins are always welcome! Cost is $14/class, with a discount for multiple classes. Your first class is free, so come try it out!

Our outdoor skating rink is maintained by a fantastic and well trained group of volunteers and Townsite staff. The Townsite has a Zamboni, and the ice crew cleans, floods, scrapes, and maintains the outdoor skating rink as much as needed. There is a heated change room with washroom facilities. The outdoor skating rink is available free to use for all community members. It is reserved by the Bragg Creek Minor Hockey Association and other groups on certain evenings and other times. The rink schedule is posted below the calendar of events in the Community section and is updated frequently during the winter season.
