Area Structure

Castle Mountain Resort (CMR) is a special community occupying an exceptional location in the Westcastle Valley of the Southwestern Alberta Rocky Mountains. Our Area Structure Plan outlines a sustainable development plan for the community that is intended to ensure CMR's viability for the next 10 to 20 years.

After two years of consultation with numerous stakeholders and much internal consideration, CMR has made a commitment to maintain a small-scale development and a family oriented atmosphere at the resort. This will be accomplished by balancing the economic and recreational needs of the ski hill with the environmental needs of the surrounding area.

The small size of the resort coupled with the strong commitment of  the CMR community to maintaining an environmentally sustainable development is a key element in minimizing the impact to the environment.
